AutoCannibal

Oozing Future

As day breaks on a bleak dystopian future, a dishevelled survivor shuffles through the shifting plastic wasteland. Nothing grows, the air burns and all life has seemingly disappeared. He’s out of food, out of water, and slowly going out of his mind. And now that there’s nothing to eat, what’s left of his body is starting to look disturbingly delicious… Surely just a finger or two can’t hurt?

AutoCannibal was part of APAM pitching program PROFILE at the APAM Gathering at Darwin Festival in 2021. It went on to be presented at Darwin Festival in 2022.
