"Kosmonaut 8"
interactive cinema experiment for a touch screen
This project is an exploration of technology and exile, agency and gender. It is an inquiry into the moral, cultural and political issues involved when a woman is placed at the centre of a traditionally "manned" space flight. Simultaneously exploring inner and outer space, the project uses the tropes of space travel, scientific investigation and technological surveillance to examine constructions of desire, nostalgia, and the mediation of memory and identity.
