STEVE HATES FISH
Filmed directly from the screen of a smartphone using a language translator app that has been told to translate from French into English, ‘Steve Hates Fish’ interprets the signage and architecture in a busy London shopping street. In an environment overloaded with information the signs run riot, as the confused and restless software does its best to fulfil its task.
