WELCOME TO MINDJOB Is turbulent life experience a rite of passage for creative people? Could you be a great artist, musician, writer without traumatic (or dramatic) life episodes? Well, Mindjob, a high tech company proves once again that nothing is impossible. With cutting edge technology, this company recycles genius minds that belong to deceased artists, modeling them into pain-free, skill-savvy, creative wonderlands. And you, yes you, the 114th Forgetter, are going to make this happen by joining the company and entering the mindscape to: - explore the creative minds being recycled - smash everything related to the artists' traumatic memories, - including real life artworks! - vacuum the debris and clean the mind! - comfort the remaining consciousness left in the minds and escort them to eternal peace This job is revolutionary! You can: - experience the pleasure of constructive destruction! - witness the life episodes of genius minds! - occasionally time travel from the sweet 1980s all the way to the cursed 2010s, aka the last innocent phase of pure-human history - be exposed to real 'contemporary art' ( a school in human-art history) and enjoy its aura - and of course, earn a handsome salary! - Oh, and get a bonus, if you're doing a fabulous job! DO YOUR BEST & FORGET THE REST! *Forgetter is an exploration videogame in which the art collection from dslcollection seeps into the narrative. Set in the near future, players take up a job at a technology company as cleaners of dead artists’ brains, identifying and removing traumatic memory blocks in their minds in order to recycle their brains for newborns. Many memory blocks are constituted by Chinese contemporary artworks. *The artworks used in this game are provided by dslcollection. Should you have any interest or inquiries about these artworks, please kindly reach out to dslcollection. This game is made by Alan Kwan and Allison Yang Jing from Sometimes Monastery


Notes: This is a game exploring how traumatic memories shape people's personality and creativity, and hence the plot inevitably involves implicit depictions about emotional challenges, mental health, intimate relationships and suicidal episode. It also contains many contemporary artworks, some of which depicts partial nudity and kissing scenes.
