"Aitken's great technical mastery is obvious in the framing of his shots, the precision with which he captures the light, and the perfection of his editing, which alternates shots of nature with the motion of the machines. A sound mix of intelligent techno music provides rhythm for the ensemble of screens and images. A narrative subjectivity emerges out of this unexpected encounter, one with an ideological viewpoint on the world in all its contemporary complexity."
Christine van Assche, Parkett no. 57, 1999.
