Self Defence / First Aid, 1998

CD-ROM and Online

A piece of speculative fiction made on the telephone with the participation of my big brother and sister.

I figured John would be handy in a violent situation, having always been bigger, stronger and more fearless than me. Jackie had trained as a nurse so I thought I could depend on her to help to sort out the ensuing mess.

The CD-ROM version was shown in the Exhibition Habitat at the Centre for Contemporary Photography, Melbourne in 1998. It was subsequently converted into an online version for the artist Chris Evans' estwhile All Horizons Club project, in 1999.
