an empire in collapse; digital landscapes; postmodernism; mass-media induced paranoia; apocalyptic anxieties; late-stage capitalism; violent uprisings; cultural regression; online overstimulation; fractured psyches; nihilistic apathy; post-irony; urban isolation; lost futures; resurgent fascism; mass surveillance; etc…

all the stuff that captures the mood of the moment we live in
