Anti-Gone – Theo Triantafyllidis (Key Collaborator, 2020)
Mixed reality performance piece. Premiered at Sundance Film Festival 2020: New Frontier.
In a post-climate change world, environmental catastrophe has become normalized. Cities are sunken, yet the vestiges of late-capitalist culture – consumerism, inequality, social unrest – live on, clinging like barnacles to the ruins of civilization. Spyda and Lynxa are a couple navigating this world frictionlessly. On their sailboat, they glide from shopping to movies to psychedelic drugs. In a damaged world where you can have anything you want, what’s the cost?
