People Like Us: Gone, Gone Beyond

Unexpected narratives expand and unravel around you, in this immersive, 360-degree cinematic installation. Fragments of familiar and experimental films interact with song and audio clips in ever-changing, kaleidoscopic and kinetic collages. This work is presented by Attenborough Centre for the Creative Arts in association with CINECITY and Brighton Digital Festival. Gone, Gone Beyond is an immersive, audiovisual, spatial cinema work that breaks the rectangle, smashing the thin screen into tiny fragments, looking beyond the frame, climbing through to see what’s behind. It comprises movie and musical compositions: animated and sample-based music concrète collage, juxtaposed with content filmed and recorded by the artist, sewn together in a giant patchwork. Pull on a thread and watch whole new narratives expand and unravel all at once on a 360º palette.

Commissioned by Naut Humon, the founder of immersive theatre project RML CineChamber, Gone, Gone Beyond is a piece with seamless wraparound projection and surround-sound enveloping the audience. The project has been a work in progress since 2017, and is showing for the first time in 2021 in feature-length format. In this 360º format, time and space becomes elasticated, with the use of collaged video furthering the reflection on how information comes to us as fragments and that nothing is fixed.
