In 1996, Korean giant Hyundai began developing a microchip plant in the Scottish town of Halbeath, which lies between Edinburgh and Glasgow. Due to various financial crises, the factory project was taken over by Motorala in 2000, and has been closed since 2001. The displaced manufacture of computer parts forms the desolate backdrop of this foreboding piece by Takuji Kogo of Candy Factory, working here in collaboration with Young Hae Chang Heavy Industries. YHCHI brings signature animation and historical music to bear on this slow-paced work. Like in much of Kogo's work, in Halbeath alienation is conjunctive with surveillance: they share an edge. There are two versions of Halbeath available -- I preferred the eponymous installment to the 'False Bride Remix.' -- Rachel Greene
