In the simulacrum
We are information mist
interconnected electron streams
swirling intelligent whirlpools
interstellar dust storms
imagining what is possible
sensing it all now outside of ourselves
Knowing what all the nodes of the network know
we inhabit the illusory life of a self among others
as if we are separate
and do not know
we are submerged
immersed in matter
orbiting stars
buried alive
in outer space

I find this piece to be rather detailed and very interesting to look at because I feel that it is very complex, yet simply inspiring. “The simulacrum is never what hides the truth; it is truth that hides the fact that there is none. The simulacrum is true.” — Ecclesiastes
That famous quote by Jean Baudrillard, who attributed it to Ecclesiastes is apocryphal, Rebecca. I do appreciate his use of it, however. Thanks.
I find this art very interesting but yet very inspiring. I like how you use the black and white combination to express your thoughts. The art is very difficult to interpret but when you pay attention you will truly know what is the purpose for this creative art work.
