Screen Stories is a video installation where we can see a succession of green touch screens activated by anonymous users. These videos, taken from the stock photo agency Getty, are simulations with indefinite use, fictions without function - at least until the potential buyer activates one of these videos for a commercial objective, and inserts content in this green gap. Several voiceovers give substance to the meaningless actions of the Getty models. Collected on Quora.com, this corpus of testimonials sheds light on the contrasting relationships that users have with their electronic devices and the Internet.
