Ceibas: To Hold a Future Body So Close to One's Own
A gallery of explored codecs. Cyborgian portraits, separated from us by time and space, by formatting and compression——the very things we have come to use as reasons for history. The very things which we have put outside of ourselves for our own good reasons. We have manufactured such systems to keep ourselves alive forever, and we are somehow dumbfounded when they grow old with us. But knowing you for as long as I have, I can’t remember when you’ve looked prettier.
