Experiencing Interruptions?

Lux: i can be your angle... or yuor devil

Lux: i can be your angle... or yuor devil is a single channel video that dissects the pornographic nature of online performativity. The video follows the central character Lux, a blank slate who is navigating the vastness of the internet while being influenced by the personifications of her opposing moral guides, her good and bad sides. As Lux is torn between portraying herself as hyper-intense versions of either good or evil on different social media platforms, it becomes increasingly clear that both of their ethical doctrines serve the same purpose of gratifying the online audiences they each pander to. Lux: i can be your angle... or yuor devil magnifies the falsity of online personas, asking the question: Who are you really posting for?
