COMA (2016 -) I recently discovered that my father had been living a double life. As an attempt to understand, I looked for answers his 1970’s ‘Sight and Sound’ film magazines, which he collected in his youth and gifted to me in mine. Looking at the images of women in this collection, where science-fiction shapes bodies as possessed or technologically-mediated, I wonder how these images may have impacted his later behaviour.
