Silver to Silicon:Media Myth and Mania on CD-ROM Artec London 1994
The piece was structured as a binary branching choice "seven ages
of man or woman" interactive biographical narrative, with the player
assuming the role of the either male or female "Mogul". The
player chose between two action options at each level. There were more
than 80 Interactive tableaux images in the whole game, plus accompanying
sound, text and QuickTime movies. A mythic parallel universe of neoclassic
futility interweaves the narrative at various key points as a metaphor
for the ultimate emptiness of the scramble for media control
