synopsis
The documentary as a computer game – not suitable for epileptics – in a technologically remarkable abstract experimental essay. An at times madcap confession, set to the rhythm of electronic music videos, of the filmmaker's loving relationship to outdated hardware and software that speaks in the language of computers, cyborgs and dark humour."Computer games built a castle full of fantastical worlds in my mind. These have become a part of my memory. My mind makes no difference between memories of dreams and memories of computers. It makes no difference between reality and imagination."
