“Or live among the ill and depressed, and question whether their eloquent laments and whimpering, the spectacle of their misfortune, is not basically aimed at hurting those present.” —Friedrich Nietzsche, Aphorisms of Love and Hate

Each screen presents excerpts from my unpublished novella, The New Madness, the texts changing every 30 seconds, the background slowly consumes the
overwritten texts exploring the forms of deconstructed poetics. The New Madness is written in the format of a journal and confesses the laments and fears of the
character. This work however posits the nature of pity as the final power one has to hurt others; to not suffer alone.
