Neave T.V. is a half-hour long stream of video clips claiming to be a T.V. station. It's a good thing it isn't.
I couldn't look away. This is the stuff of the future, the digital mind-opium that our generation has been trained to salivate over. Memes, sparkling and perplexing in their ____, hold your attention at bay. A perfect speed is maintained, keeping the viewer in a state of not-knowing while peaking interest throughout.
It's almost like a gothic horror scene, over and over and over and over and over. Something is presented, then made to seem not quite right. Incredibly affective. Tasty, addicting, glorious.
God dammit we are so screwed when they make this a 24/7 thing. The Conformists are gonna eat it up.
THIS IS A TASTE OF WHAT IS TO COME. A SOMA-LIKE DREAM STATE PRE-PROGRAMMED BY OTHER LIVING PEOPLE. You thought prime time T.V. was bad.
or...
Wow look how well they have assembled these interesting visual media artifacts into a non-cohesive but affectively similar thread. Way to deconstruct the linear nature of popular media and provide a thoroughly enjoyable experience!
Okay it's cool now, but it'll be dangerous later.
Or will we be ready for it? Is the age of linearity and structure and meaning over? Rhizomatic entertainment?
I rushed this post, gave an unstructured commentary. I want you to go and watch it. Wait. Uh oh.
