Again Again Again (We Eat the World and the World Eats Us)

Synopsis

As our planet is in deep shit (sheeeeeeeee-it) this animated video reflects that shit - quite literally, in fact, as again-again-again (we eat the world and the world eats us) takes the viewer on a ride on an intestinal highway, passing lakes of glossy dung, as if Charlie’s chocolate factory has just turned into shit. The video is a roller coaster ride through different scenes of social decay, violence and riots, set over the rolling hills of a post-Brexit catastrophe, a crisis which has turned this part of the world into a big load of shit. Sheeeeeeeee-it! Heavy shit which goes down lightly, as layers of destruction pour into a well-crafted narrative of post-millennia-anxiety with sweetly sick humor.

The Baby Factory is Closed The Baby Factory is Closed

Director: Deepa Mann-Kler

Year: 2026

A 20-minute single-player immersive VR experience that places users inside the body of Zoraan, a British-born Sikh woman navigating menopause amidst climate collapse and the ruins of colonial medicine. You breathe with her. You scream with her. You dance your way out of sedation. Blending real-time visuals, bio-haptic feedback and diasporic sound, this work reframes menopause not as decline but as volatile power; closing ‘The Baby Factory’ to ignite a cultural revolution. Using gesture, voice and biometric feedback, audiences become co-conspirators in a volatile act of embodied rebellion. This is not a metaphor. This is an insurgency.
