Control Room is the product of time spent in August 2016 researching the Aberdeen harbour archives where we found three carousels of 35mm slides, which had originally been part of a corporate audio-visual presentation most likely made during the 1980s.
There were no sound recordings or documentation with the slides and so Jon and Alison have created their own fictional account to accompany them; an interview speculating on the events, times and places these images describe.
Part interrogation and part therapy session the dialogue never concludes. In fact each question, response and image is endlessly being recombined randomly as the work plays in its own attempt to consider how any artefact in any archive can mean quite different things at different times.
