Mega 2020 is a remastered animated music video that was excavated from a time capsule buried by Mahathir under Sunway Putra Mall, Kuala Lumpur, in 1987. This mysterious artefact is currently undergoing research by experts on the Wawasan 2020 programme. Victoria Yam, a music producer and composer, identified the song’s lyrics as being inspired by the song, Warisan, by Dato’ Sudirman, who used the self and the yearning of his dreams to explore his patriotism. “We believe the musician’s sampling of the seruling and drums have been employed here to resonate the sound of Merdeka marches”. Current leads also identify the video’s dancer as Denise Lai, although her identity is irrelevant here. According to an expert, who preferred to remain anonymous, her body functions simply as a “conduit for Wawasan 2020’s ideologies and its imagination of the ideal technologically-savvy subject”, her movements clearly bound up with the track’s psychic pulse of nationhood. Philip Koh and Pang Hei, two videographers who have been tasked with research on the artefact’s visuals, identify the use of flat style graphics with 10fps stop motion at the dance’s opening sequence, as “a morphing entity crashing into the birth of the internet” who journeys across dystopian scenes. DNA analysis will be carried out to try to learn more about the people involved. It is thought likely they were bored artists who snuck their floppy disk into the capsule prior to its burial. A full report of the findings will be published in due course.
