Mobile Crash // Lucas Bambozzi



Mobile Crash partially relates to the final sequences (act 3) presented in the live video performance: Da Obsolescência Programada in 3 acts.

Re-created as an interactive installation, the set up is constituted by four big projections in a room, with its respective direct audio. Once the viewer enters the space the system detects his/her direction and would respond accordingly, by playing a series of video sequences in the related screen. Once inside the room, one would just point to one of the four screens to make it respond by triggering the videos. The interface, specially developed for the work has proved to be very intuitive (the premiére was at Geografias Celulares, curated by Marcus Bastos at the Espacio Fundación Telefonica, in Buenos Aires). The images, edited in a rhythmic and increasingly noisier sequence (up to 12 levels), show technologic devices, mainly mobile phones, being smashed by a hammer.
