Just My Luck

2023 || Paperback || Cécile Hupin e.a. || The Eriskay Connection

If money cannot buy happiness, what drives people to participate in a lottery? And what effect does (almost) winning have on someone’s life, or that of the people around them? Cécile Hupin and Katherine Longly set out to compare dreams with reality by giving a voice to those who won or came close to winning a jackpot, for better or for worse. Their stories form a reflection of our society, our aspirations, our beliefs, and our fraught relationship with money. All of the personal accounts t...

Petrified Media

2023 || Paperback || Stephen Cornford || The Eriskay Connection

Inspired by the Anthropocene, media artist Stephen Cornford speculates on the deep future of electronic waste as it sediments into Earth’s stratigraphic record. By applying geological techniques to a hypothetical “technofossil”, he seeks to materialise an inevitable scenario where discarded technologies become part of the planet’s geology.

Îles de Sept Villes

2024 || Paperback || Stéphanie Roland || The Eriskay Connection

A phantom island is an island whose existence has been accepted for a certain period of time (sometimes centuries) and has been mentioned on maps, but which has subsequently been removed because it has been proven not to be real. There are many possible explanations for these geographical fictions: geopolitical and economic interests, cartographic copyrights, rumours, memes, hoaxes, legends, and more. These phantom islands have never physically existed, but they have had a real impact on the ...

Everything is a Projection

2023 || Paperback || Sheung Yiu || The Eriskay Connection

This transformed his physical desktop into a three-dimensional digital world. The digitisation of his desktop produced a dataset of digital objects that became an archaeological site of his everyday life. Everything Is a Projection explores one of the visual systems that form th...

You Know I Am Not There

2020 || Paperback || Danielle Lemaire || The Eriskay Connection

'You Know I Am Not There' is a line from the song 'Know' by English singer-songwriter Nick Drake. He was well-known to a small circle of fans in his time and died in 1974 at the age of 26. Now, Drake has achieved true cult status and is seen as one of the most important singer-songwriters of the twentieth century. Visual artist Danielle Lemaire traced his footsteps, immersed herself in his mystical view of the world, and sought contact with ‘Drakeheads’, resulting in a series of drawings....
