Synopsis

ToDoJoyComplete is a short 3D digital film (approximately 6 minutes) by the collaborative duo Beagles and Ramsay.A speculation about digital aesthetics, the film combines the experimental use of 3d animation software with insights from Beagles’ published research on the impact of digital culture. The film shows a number of disconnected figures moving and occupying an anonymous artificially-lit and disorientating interior that is reminiscent of a contemporary art installation. A dehumanised voiceover comprises the key feature of the soundtrack. Since its first presentation in 2016, at The Scottish Endarkenment: Art and Unreason 1945 to the Present, Dovecot Gallery, Edinburgh from 13 May – 29 August 2016, the film has been shown in different iterations in 5 national and international venues including London, Glasgow and Copenhagen. See Significance, page 17 for full list.
