Somewhere between video installation and talking head documentary
is Ephemera. This screenwork utilises the surface of Neolithic
sarsen stone as an ancient projection screen for a modern
technology. In this digitally projected dimension, three key
archaeology/media figures discuss the subject of archaeology's
portrayal on television: Mike Pitts, Editor British Archaeology
magazine; Francis Pryor, President, Council for British Archaeology;
and Julian Richards, TV and radio broadcaster.
