Feeling lost, a holidayer takes a vacation, only to discover a world that is as banal as it is hyper-real. A found-footage essay film. A home-movie. A music video. An experimental documentary about the fantasy of air travel. Taking a tour of the global centres of accumulation - New York, Dubai, Burning Man - Twilight documents the unreal, the mundane and the spectre of ecological collapse.
A plane takes off, bound for Paris (Charles De Gaulle). A pilot advises his co-pilot on the finer points of speed and altitude management. As the plane makes its approach, ghost transmissions invade the cockpit. The majesty of air travel is momentarily undone by a visit from a guilty conscience.
An experimental essay film about terrorism, media, violence and globalisation. Three infotainment news broadcasts - a rollercoaster, a hijacking, and an influencer - are soundtracked by pulsating experimental electronics that push the psychic residue of a post war-on-terror world out of the unconscious and onto the screen. Capitalism, imperialism, desire; all three are implicated in a nihilism that has seeped from the news into the social psyche.

I Know A Person When I Talk To It follows an anonymous protagonist, a burnt out Web 3.0 engineer who experiences a series of increasingly strange events whilst on a retreat on King Island. A remote location nestled in the ‘Bass Strait Triangle’ (akin to The Bermuda Triangle). This stretch of land and water has recorded more disappearances of ships, aircraft, and individuals than any other area in Australia.1 What starts off as a personal reprieve from society slowly slips into a new form of remote paranoia. Amid his attempts to find inner peace within a new daily rhythm, the island's troubled history starts to manifest itself in strange and unsettling presences. These encounters appear to be orchestrated by an unseen, enigmatic intelligence, that deciphers parapsychological imprints using WiFi radio signals which gradually bleed into the protagonist's reality.
