LIVING MY BEST HYPERREAL LIFE
Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality are only just the beginning of the future technological developments. As soon as the virtual and the physical world merge, will we and our environment take shapes however we would like? I wonder what's possible, the virtual world seems to be infinite.
I respond to the alienating feeling of intangibility and infinity and think it is important we recognize this can be a positive future.
As a result I made a collage-based speculative futuristic film in which three characters are living their best hyperreal life.

Hi, it's me! Lyla.
You could say I'm a bit of a wallflower in real life,
but this world has activated a new consciousness within me and all throughout the universe.
Now I'm the star of my own show,
the author of my own story,
the director of my own play.
Hi, it's me! Brigitte.
The options here are endless and I want to wear it all,
so I can be everything I've ever wanted to be, and more.
I'm stepping up to my potential, and owning it.
Hell yeah, I'm owning it!
Hi, it's me! Akira.
So many doors have opened up for me since I've been here,
I'm walking through them, with ease.
I didn't take any risks at life, but now I feel like I can handle it all.
I'm manifesting everything that's already existed within me.
