This sound piece aims to capture power and authority through the illusion of masculinity. The goal behind my various recordings was to depict various retro associations of manhood, such as driving fast, smoking, USING service stations, and skateboarding. In doing so I have also touched on societies elements that are almost authoritative over us. e.g. traffic light intersections, the need to refuel (If you want to drive, you MUST have fuel in your car) and the environment. These elements all control us in someway and demonstrate our lack of power over many aspects of modern humanity, smoking for example is authoritative over us as it is an addiction to many.
