Killbox is an online game and interactive installation that critically explores the nature of drone warfare, its complexities and consequences. It is an experience that explores the use of technology to transform and extend political and military power, and the abstraction of killing through virtualisation.
Killbox involves audiences in a fictionalized interactive experience in virtual environments based on documented drones strikes in Northern Pakistan.
NEoN brings it back to Dundee, after a year of touring the world, as an installation and performance, like never seen before.
The work is an international collaboration between U.S. based artist/activist, Joseph DeLappe and Scotland-based artists and game developers, Malath Abbas, Tom deMajo and Albert Elwin from Biome Collective.
