Part of The Culture Capital Exchange's Inside Out Festival 2017
A 60’ presentation and Q and A with Victoria Mapplebeck 
Most people in Europe have had a mobile phone since the late 90’s.  There are now more mobiles than people on the planet. Almost seamlessly, our phones track, trace and archive our lives. We now have access to a seemingly infinite archive of our emotional pasts. What affect does this word-perfect access to our past have? Is this reflection useful - not just nostalgia but a way of exploring the past in a more powerful way than ever before?
Victoria Mapplebeck will screen her award winning Film London smartphone short, 160 Characters. Shot entirely on an iPhone 6, 160 Characters brings to life the secrets buried in a vintage Nokia, a story that unfolds in just 100 texts and tells the story of how two people, meet, date, break up and deal with an unplanned pregnancy.
