ONCE UPON A NOW

“Once Upon A Now” is an experimental digital theatre that is navigating through different belief systems, rhetoric and events surrounding the phenomenon of 5G. It is a commentary on how with each alternating upswing in technology, we meet our perceived static nature shifting, and paradoxically project new meanings and observations through magical thinking fed by different tabs of truths.

In “Once Upon a Now”, we meet experimental 3D digital-doubles of my own physical form, which function as theatrical actors occupying the stage of 5G, magical thinking, corporate utopias and the insecurities of one’s own beliefs.
