Composed and produced in 2025, this score was specially made for playable game Dump: 3D preservation Space, exhibited at Seager Gallery, London and online.
DUMP Doom Simulator integrates 46 digital assets scanned from artworks held in London studios. These works represent pieces that artists could no longer save due to lack of storage and pressures around the cost of living crisis. Set in a speculative future, players navigate a landscape that blurs lines between prehistory and post-apocalypse. In this imagined planet, the ruins of these artworks are scattered, awaiting recovery by the players.
