While the PC I had at home far outperformed the aenemic black and white Mac Classics in school, the minimal games had a charm that’s captivated me all these years. – [Author's description]

The main reason why I decided to create this game prototype was to attempt to describe my experiences of living in the city centre of Dundee and often seeing drug addicts around my area. I tried to imagine how they would see the world around them in some sort of abstract and perhaps meaningless way.
In terms of visuals, I was inspired by the literary works of William Borroughs (mainly Naked Lunch and The Ticket That Exploded) – as he himself struggled with heroin addiction. Additionally, I was also influenced by the visual style of the NSK political art collective, drawing inspiration from their totalitarian, conformist and morbid symbolism. The Junkie game prototype is something like a poem represented through a series of ten different scenes – where each scene can be thought of as an interactive artwork (perhaps comparable to a painting). – [Author's Description]

It does what it says on the box. This piece came about after a year of thinking on OOO and my difficulties accepting it. It’s not fashionable now, but I can’t get past human phenomenology and epistemology, or “correlationism” as the kids are calling it these days. We only know what we know because of how we know.
Mixed up in all of this are the ideas of digital anthropopagy and productive misinterpretations. The ingesting and remixing culture to make more culture.
Also I’ve spent the last year watching my daughter develop from a completely helpless newborn to an increasingly independent toddler. This includes feeding herself. It’s been fascinating. So there’s a little of that thrown in, too.
