This (fictive) video documentary was handed in as assessment for the second module of my photography MA. The assignment was phrased as: "Your documentary / media artefact should critically situate your production techniques, technologies and tools within the history and future of practice methodologies (locally and globally), while articulating principles of sustainability for moving your practice and research forward."
