"Storage Systems is an installation that compares analogue storage to digital storage. It is an investigation of the active role media and their storage systems have in the manufacture of meaning. For instance, the empirical system evolved in a pre-digital world and is welded to analogue storage. It is an experiential system based on observation and the senses, so can it adapt to a virtual world," Feeney says.
"People can watch the Cell Case Film from the comfort of the Analogue Chair. They can record their impressions and ideas, and respond to other people's contributions, in books that are attached to the chair. They can also play with some little ceramic sculptures, which are another, older medium for storing ideas and information."
Presented alongside Justin Spiers Castleland and Ro Bradshaw Please God, let my children grow and live happily ever after. This playful group of exhibitions feature art works made of sweets, interactive art, and lots of castles bringing humour and fun, with a darker side, into the gallery.
