‘Space Invaders’ is a science fantasy that maps the terrain of what might have been regarded, in the 60s, as a “global village”, the giant video screen of the disco, the home television and the video arcade game. But, this global community has grown so powerful that its inhabitants want to carry their own worlds with them. When that happens, what becomes of the present? Worlds collide and pretty soon ‘everyone is a star!' just like Andy Warhol predicted, but now it is for longer than 15 mins! 

– Judith Barry
