Inspiration: I've directed and shot this short portrait of Winona, 14 years old in the year 2025, an introduction to the concept of "jolting" in the modern era, creating feelings of euphoria, among other sensations.
The average American spends about 11 hours a day on digital media; connected to the Internet (and each other) through devices and underground wires. It’s not hard to imagine that some day all this will be under our skin. RFID implants aren’t just the stuff of Sci-Fi anymore. They’re already out there being tested.
Microchip implants promise (scarily) to make everything knowable, trackable: forever found. They also promise new ways of getting lost. We look at what happens when the Internet gets under our skin.
This is Winona, new customer.
