Personal Belongings - Commissioned by the Film & Video Umbrella in 1998 as part of their Black Box project .

Taking its title from that oracular piece of high-technology the Black Box flight recorder, this touring exhibition bought together five short works, all displayed on a touch-screen terminal, exploring the ambiguities of our contemporary fixation with technology.
Installation view Jake Tilson's sound-based piece 'Personal Belongings' juxtaposed snatches of everyday sounds with aircraft noise.


The other artists were Philip Lai, Jane and Louise Wilson, Graham Wood and Rory Hamilton.

'Black Box' was curated and produced by Film and Video Umbrella. Funded by the Arts Council of England and London Arts Board.
