This video work shows optical mice and keyboards burning in a fireplace. In the old days, the fireplace was at the center of the living room where the whole family would gather, but it has since been replaced by the television. In today’s era, there are popular programs showing live broadcasts of fireplaces, while individuals carry around their own smart devices. Using legacy devices as tinder, exonemo has created a new fireplace for an age when everyone can watch it on their personal display screens.
