ACCESSORY


There’s now over 30 million voice-devices in our homes, but how much should they be listening? Working with Will Millner & Brian Williams, we devised an interactive VR experience to put the ethics of A.I. to the test.






You play the role of a connected device that witnesses a crime. Given agency over its actions, do you use your intelligence to help the victim escape and alert the police? Or become an accessory to murder?


We pitched the idea to over 30 industry specialists at Sheffield Documentary Festival. Framestore were on board to provide the production tech. We just needed some budget. Then lockdown hit.  

Today we’re still developing the script and exploring ways to make it, and I’m writing the same premise as a Podcast series.
