A ground-breaking video and computer installation on the theme of evolution by artist Simon Robertshaw and photographer Sinclair Stammers. Featuring a vivid array of video, photographic and computer-generated images, which together form the centrepiece of a constantly-changing interactive environment, The Nature of History compared current and historical thinking on genetics and biological evolution - from Darwinian theories of natural selection to the latest developments in the rapidly-expanding field of artificial life. Programme created in collaboration with Dr Duncan Gillies, Imperial College.

Supported by:

The Nature of History was co-commissioned by Film & Video Umbrella and The Arts Catalyst.
