Farewell recording for an observer of an unknown time and place

Part speculative history of the future, part worldbuilding rendering, ‘Farewell recording for an observer of an unknown time and place’ is an essayistic digression on capitalism, environment, technology and death.
Central to the work is Invasive Landscape Phenomenon, a mysterious, fast spreading malady. Reminiscent of dissociative trauma response, this affliction emerges in a world on the verge of ecological collapse, in which first-hand experience is replaced by a mediated alternative to physical presence.
Notions of loss, trauma and placelessness intertwine with environmental collapse
narratives. Science fiction becomes both vehicle and methodology to express and investigate hypothetical temporalities; a ground in which documentary and fiction compete and time wraps upon itself. ‘Farewell Recording for an observer of an unknown time and place’ is a dense, many-layered piece, steered by the thoughts of a moving-image sequence editor and their first-person account of their way out of life itself.
