Major-Domo (english)

Kurzbeschreibung

Advertisement :
No worry, no concern : your major-domo provides everything you need.
And because you‘re living in a high-tech house,
your future major-domo must be a robot.
The avantages are obvious : no wages, no hollidays, 24 hours a day
available...
A good value for your money..

Stop!!

The vision of the future is questionable. Afterwards the futuristic products often appear suddenly old in an amazing way. Every future will turn to past.

The perspective of my major-domo is that one.
The interactive work shows the „complete cycle of the product“ : from the
first technical sketches, to the scenes used to promote the „brand new Major-Domo“.
But It becomes, as time goes by, a „future-ex...“,
and ends finally in the showcase of a museum, as an „ex-future“...

More : some of the activity of our beloved major-domo are perhaps not so quite innocent and could hide some danger.
And because it almost looks as a human being, we don‘t remember it‘s
only a machine... with what kind of abilities ?
Who really knows what was done by the manufacturer ?
Communication and surveillance : only for the benefit of the proud owner of the major-domo ?
Our critical eye has to stay wide open.
