Time o´ the Signs
SYNOPSIS
"Time o´ the Signs" is an experimental - narrative but also
documentary - animation about digital time thieves of our time, media
stupidities and ongoing daily routines. This work wants to question: how
do we (not) want to live in a future society?
Better, faster, more efficient, your faceless shadow in the cloud. Your clock: tick tock, Your stats? They drop...
The system knows you, better than you do. So you post as a ghost,
you stream your dream and you augment life´s content. Say “Buy Buy” to
happiness!
A.S.A.P.! C.W.O.T... Machine life balance, apple every day, so smart!
Designed for the deadline, you resigned from your life, fin(e)?
In your safe home, immersed in your comfort zone: Time´s up-load?
Life filed? All under Control? Or just "Ctrl - alt – delete"?...
