30 x 20 cm
The work is a print on aluminium, a digital collage that utilises imagery from various locations in video games and films where automation and the internet of things has led to negative social, economic and political outcomes. Attached to the print is an Amazon Dash Button, a present-day device that allows users to re-order various items with the press of a button; a soon to be obsolete gadget that will be ultimately replaced by a more streamlined universal product in the future.
