Although we live in a celebrity driven culture it is not widely known that major news networks such as the BBC, Fox and Sky prepare obituaries about famous people to put on air in the event of an unexpected death.

Criticising the media’s obsession with celebrity an art collective named IOCOSE will be screening their film In the Long Run (2010) at HTTP gallery north London, plus two other works not exhibited in the UK until now.

The 20 minute film is a reconstruction of a possible future high profile media event. The death of pop star Madonna is described in a BBC News special edition, with a journalist and studio guest who go over the details of the fatal car accident, the statements of the VIPs and the reactions of fans around the world.
