The project then evolved into an inquiry of the entertainment complex. The focus is now on a so-called gun-camera video from July 12, 2007, that was leaked by American soldier Bradley Manning (now Chelsea Manning) showing how civilians and Reuters photographers were gunned down from an Apache helicopter in Baghdad, a video which later came to be known as Collateral Murder. The video was published by Wikileaks on 5 April 2010, and Assange was hailed a brave activist. But less than four months later, the focus shifted away from the war crimes in Baghdad. The world media now turned its gaze towards Stockholm and the rape accusations against Assange in August 2010. Three years later, Collateral Murder re-occurred but this time in the 2013 Touchstone/Disney feature film titled The Fifth Estate in which Assange is portrayed as a dubious character, rather than a whistleblower revealing war crimes. An hour into the film (00:59:46 to be exact), the artists pressed ‘pause’, taking a photograph of a stained computer screen showing an image of actor Benedict Cumberbatch playing Assange. The core of the project is to highlight the film industry's capacity to render harmless leaked documentation of war crime.

A Beach

A Beach consists of photographs taken along the beach in the Arab city of Jaffa, south of Tel Aviv, Israel. They are presented with a photograph from the same place taken by French photographer Félix Bonfils in 1880. The buildings that are visible in Bonfils’ photograph are now demolished to the ground to make way for a modern boardwalk. The construction is a result of the occupation of Palestine and is part of the gentrification and expansion of Tel Aviv. The only sign of the missing houses are pieces of mosaic from floor tiles found on the beach in Jaffa.

Gottsunda

In the autumn of 2012, artist Erik Krikortz initiated a workshop in photography and writing for teenagers in Gottsunda, a suburb in Uppsala, Sweden. The workshop was held by photographers Klara Källström and Thobias Fäldt together with poet Viktor Johansson and physically realized in a book by 1:2:3. The idea of the workshop was to encourage the participants to share their own stories about Gottsunda, a place which media frequently portrays as a problem affected area. This book is a result of the told, written and visualized stories from the time the group spent together.

The participants of the workshop were: Blini Beqa, Olivia Gustafsson, Sergej Brändén, Hanna Rönntoft, Linnea Carlsson Uggla, Arjanit Beqaj, Johan Järvenson, Linnea Sitell and Kerim Ashkar.
