Experimental Short Film by Elom 20ce (Togo), Musquiqui Chihying (Taiwan) and Gregor Kasper (Germany) / 16 mins / Representing as World Sales
A landscape of
electronic equipment leftovers, embedded in biting clouds of smoke, burnt earth and dirty water.
In Agbogbloshie - one of the world's largest e-waste recycling sites in the
middle of Accra - they were dismantled and burnt in order to return their metals to the industrial recycling cycles.
In between, an observer who, by means of acoustic field
research, investigates this place as a contact zone of complex global economic, social, power-political and technological processes and questions this from a spiritual
perspective.
