2015-11-05 15:00:05<p>'Sticky Drama' a new film by Jon Rafman and Daniel Lopatin is now available to watch online at</p><p><a href="http://pointnever.com/sticky-drama" target="_blank">pointnever.com</a></p><p>The short film / music video is released in two parts -- Sticky Drama (Prologue) and Sticky Drama (Music Video). With a cast of over 35 children, the film brings to life a fantastical world in which characters are on a quest, battling for dominance and in a race against time to archive past histories. Inspired by the costumes, staging and extended improvised narratives of Live Action Role Play (LARP), the video reflects the vivid, often violent world of children’s imaginations and games, as well as extending both artists’ ongoing investigation into appropriation, the nature of memory and the horror of data loss.</p><p>The piece was originally commissioned by the Zabludowicz Collection in conjunction with Warp Records. An alternative edit of it has been showing as part of Rafman’s multi-format exhibition currently showing in London.</p>
