I want to thank you for making this available. It was a stunning depiction of reality and how drone strikes have evolved the act of killing to be done without a presence at the scene of the murder. What was most appealing to me was that the soldier being interviewed had ptsd. Thus providing the link to the murders without even actually experiencing it in person. What a unique perspective. A murder cleared by the government still effects the soldier manning what could be described as a real life video game. As this art reflects life, it is clear that no one is safe from the evil of destruction that man has created. I wonder if the higher ups, in government, sleep well at night knowing that every time the clearance is given, the same life they took creates invisible blood on their hands. Initially, I watched this video and had to replay it. My only regret is not being able to experience it looping in the exhibition, so that I pick up on the nuances that walking into the project at a random time provides. I researched the video on google and I have to say it was well worth it as I was unclear on the meaning behind the narrative.
