GEORGIE NETTELL
THE VIVID PRESENT
November 3 – December 15, 2016

The Earth's civilization is collapsing or has collapsed. Everyone is killed except for themain characters, who survive relatively unscathed and are then freed from the priorconstraints of civilization. The main charecters view the apparently shared world as
an illusion of the mind, and accept the imagined and dreamed realms as of equalvalidity to the apparently shared world. The main charecters spend 47% of theirwaking time on average daydreaming, but since remembering and imagining sends
blood to identical parts of the brain, their imagined worlds begin to echo elements ofthe collapsed society. The main charecters read this as a warning.
