Master Project: The Far Far Future Fund
– 2025
Installation, Hybrid publication
For the graduation exhibition I staged an archeology that conveys a sci-fi narrative through its description in this digital web-archive. The project named The Far Far Far Future Fund, was an iterative exploration of storytelling and world-building by juxtaposing speculative fiction and speculative finance.
In order to stage the archeology for the projects final iteration, I devised a script that generated asemic writing utilizing a pen-plotter from the 1980's. I appropriated this machine, intended for the production of overheads and technical drawings, to engrave on clay tablets. These tablets were then staged in a dig site at Brienenoord Rotterdam, where the graduation exhibition took place.
