The Static Televisual Device in the Age of Rapid Technological Change interrogates the cathode ray tube in an age where there are more screens than people on the planet. We live in a digital world where tube televisions and devices have come to be viewed as anachronistic forms in all their incarnations. The exhibition digitally reframes the cathode ray tube through speculative reconfigurations, exploring the complexities inherent in technologies that are deeply embedded in the social imagination, their propensity to evoke nostalgic responses and their place in a volatile ecological landscape.
