Tottenham Court Road

Review:The Tottenham Court Road Heist is one of the lesser known of the Great British Bank Robberies. This short animation shows the last clips from the CCTV footage. Whilst entirely fictional, the border between make believe and reality is pushed here. When does something become the truth? How many people does it take to report something for it to become reality? Wikipedia has been used to build misinformation about people, and write them whole new life stories.

DiscoCubes

Review:Edited from an original photograph by the author of Rachel Whiteread's negative spaces in the Tate Modern, which can be found here. By using colour mapping and lighting effects, a stark confident image, quite different from the photograph has been created.

Mushroom Cloud

Review: Produced at the start of the war on Iraq, this image is not a direct opposition to the war, but meerly a comment on the repetitiveness of the situation, and a suggestion, by a major UK digital artist, that governments should 'get it right the first time'. The words create a mental link between a piece of contemporary music by 'Rage Against the Machine' - 'Bombtrack'. Listening to the music will explain the link.

WAKE UP

Review: The usage of external material here, the artist does minimal work here, meerely adjusting tone and contrast levels, and overlaying some appropriate text, to dramatically increase the effect. The concept of getting other people to create artwork for you was originally developed by Andy Warhol, and now improvised on by top UK artist Jonney Stone. The title 'WAKE UP' again another mental link between 'RATM' and the artwork, this picture possibly a sarcastic take on the failure of the early 1990's failed socialist movement.

Pray What Country?

Review: Again a take on the Andy Warhol concept, dwelling strongly on the 1960's pop art style with its use of gerish colours and slight posterization. Not really portraying a deep political message, this picture is meant to be enjoyed for its artistic qualities alone, and simple links with the famed console game FFX.
