WAX, or The Discovery of Television Among the Bees
(David Blair, USA/Germany, 1991). Curated by Richard Wright.

David Blair’s seminal film was one of the earliest examples of how to use inexpensive, digital production methods - including computer animation by the now well-known media theorist Lev Manovich - to construct a long-form, hallucinatory narrative that tied together the first Gulf War, flight simulators, psychic research and bee keeping.

Followed by a Q&A with the artist, led by Steven Bode (Director, Film and Video Umbrella).
