A digital protopersona occupying an industrial surveillance network drifts into sleep. Its ravaged and bleak techno-militaristic surroundings are reprocessed and regurgitated as the being imagines a pastoral future.

Eight burning suns rise and fall over a fractured America where digital ghosts, abandoned landscapes, and unstable symbols drift through an endless cycle of decay and renewal. Shut-ins linger at the edges of contemporary life while a solitary avatar embarks on a journey across deserts, suburbs, cornfields, casinos, and simulated worlds, searching for meaning amid the ruins of an image-saturated culture.
