Title: TWENTY EIGHTY FOUR
Year: 2084
About 60 years from now I think we will have to have figured out how to upload our conscience. Somewhere free from the idea of “dead or alive” we exist as a collection of our memories and thoughts. No jobs, no bank accounts, just creating beauty and being part of a collective organism. We will hopefully have successfully migrated to the next evolution of human compassion and empathy.”
REO was invited to TIMEPieces by BT. Their work is inspired by the year 1984.
