wannasleep＆Enno Cheng - Essential Blues

Miller is a painter living in 2040. Since 2027, social media, short videos, sex advertisements, and spam have invaded public life on a massive scale. The information revolution has led people to communicate solely through phone messages. Oral conversations are no longer trusted. People fear that thoughtless words might make them the target of a cyber witch-hunt. In an era where messages scatter quickly and violently, society has seen too many martyrs who have been burned, whipped, or forgotten on the internet. Due to long-term phone use, by 2040, people’s visual focus is permanently marked by a rectangular blue visual afterimage. Doctors have named this condition ESSENTIAL BLUE.
