El trabajo en video de Bob Bicknell-Knight, I Wish I’d Been Born a Balloon, se centra en la vida de un nano drone, un diminuto vehículo aéreo no tripulado que se utiliza principalmente en operaciones militares. A lo largo del video, el dispositivo reflexiona sobre su propia existencia y lamenta su propósito principal, deseando que se juegue con él en lugar de desplegarlo en zonas de combate, y habla sobre la historia de los drones en relación con varias guerras. El trabajo utiliza imágenes capturadas dentro del mundo del videojuego Grand Theft Auto V de 2013, ampliamente reconocido como una de las simulaciones digitales más precisas del mundo físico.
