For Our Time
AGENCY: THE 4TH HOUSE
Take a look at a selection of our recent projects, crafted with care and designed to make an impact. Each one tells a story of creativity, collaboration, and results.
The story begins for me in 2015, with what I thought then was just an afternoon's works filming an art installation at St Pancras Station. Ten years later I’m looking back on a project that has spanned multiple short documentaries, countless pieces of art and media and extended into blockchain and AI.
2015 - 2025

This is neither ‘my film’, nor a film that seeks to tell a story that is necessarily understandable to an audience who meet the project for the first time. It’s as much a question as an answer - a film that simply says "This Happened’.
Over the ten years of working on the project I was never given a brief, just permission to be there, to document, to bring my own contribution, initially as an observer, and then a participant and contributor. This process changed the way that I make films and they way that I approach my life.
It required an approach that is unauthored, that removes the editor from the process, that offers no opinion. Constructed chronologically, of one second shots, framed with dates marking time, the filmmaker tries to hide their presence.
This is a story that needs to be known, not as an act of celebration that says ‘look what we did’ but rather a demonstration of a way of working, where imagination, human connection, and collaboration replace top down process. Where humans are given the chance to create their own futures rather than fit into the processes of agenda focused organisations.
To the 300 people who gave their love, energy and time to this I project, this is for you. Thank you. And to the audience who who find this story for the first time I hope you find questions that bring you back. This is a beginning not an end.
