WHAT WOULD IT TAKE TO CONVINCE YOU THAT SOMETHING WAS REAL?
10m, Silent (no audio) video (2025)
Vertical Screen Commission
What would it take to convince you that something was real? is a short video that playfully explores the intersection of dominant media platforms with our experiences of democracy, coercion, belief, and trust.
Made entirely from found or pre-existing online footage the video was exhibited in the street-level window of the Berwick Film & Media Arts Festival venue on Bridge Street from 16th November 2025 until 16th January 2026.
Visitors were able to view the video, from street-level, 24hrs a day.

WORKSHOP:
Berwick Film & Media Arts Festival
In August Andrew Wilson hosted a BFMAF Film Lab that explored limitations of our existing media platforms whilst introducing collective alternatives.
This Film Lab was open for anyone interested in working with others to develop and sustain media ecosystems with a collaborative ethos and a commitment to marginalised or unheard voices.
