A random drama dreamt by a database. A frolic through the foreafter “in the aye”; A tale told in four ayes; The four-abend of the other ayes; A post-prequel greeting and farewell; An oculists nightmare.
Methodology: Algorithgms of varying randomness source clips from a database comprised of all the elements contained in the AYE films to randomly determine; sequence, in-points, duration, tracks, layers
and then automatically compile the results into a non-linear editing application, making four different sufi "Greetings" which together make this Overture to the three feature films.

Using Toni Morrison’s ‘The Site of Memory’ as a starting point for interrogation, HALF MEMORY is a languid meditation on memory, conurbations, isolation, and the histories we live among. Oscillating between years, cities, and unfolding images, the film is an examination of the present as an artefact of the past. Shot on Super8 and filmed between the US, France and the UK over a period of years.

This film delves into the intricate interplay between screen media, disability representation, and the uncanny within the horror genre. Focused on the convergence of cultural influences, it explores how disabled bodies are employed as elements of fear in the realm of analog horror, residing in the unsettling space between robotics and humanity known as the Uncanny Valley. The paper investigates the nuanced ways in which robotics mimic human aesthetics, creating an eerie yet captivating experience for audiences. Furthermore, the research scrutinises the manipulation of sound conventions in horror media, specifically inverting preconceived auditory expectations to induce fear. This examination contributes to our understanding of the profound impact sound has on audience perception and emotional engagement in horror narratives.The study also addresses the sonically codified representation of disability through the lens of the Medical Model. By scrutinising instances where sound either goes awry or is deliberately absent, the paper explores how such deviations from auditory norms contribute to the perception of disability as 'wrong' or ‘disturbing.'. This sonic dissonance between expectation and reality serves to reinforce societal biases and ingrained perceptions associated with disability, offering a unique perspective on the intersection of horror, technology, and disability studies.
