Voice assistants are nothing new. Everyone knows what they are and how you use them, but no-one really knows how much they can improve your life. You see, having an Alexa device gives you magical powers. Imagine being about to command actors to perform a scene again, or request a song from an orchestra. ‘A Voice Is All You Need’ is designed to be a visual representation of how Alexa can unlock possibilities in a way that hands-on tech devices can’t.
In “Ironing,” a protagonist repeatedly interrupts an epic battle scene to command a pair of elvish warriors to play out a death scene, all while casually doing his ironing (and really annoying the characters in the process.)
In “Opera,” the protagonist travels back in time to the 18th century to interrupt an opera concert. Pushing through the audience on his sun lounger, the topless man commands the singer to change the track to something a little more fun.
