Disillusioned 2.0

The hooded figure visibly stiffened. "This is not a joke, there is a reason that ignorance is widely regarded as being bliss, and there is a reason many opt to remain in bliss, particularly women" they cautioned. "Once you take this, the current rose tinted lens that you and all of humanity survives on, will disintegrate from your view.. are you sure you can handle the reality the true reflection? Without the cushions and scaffolds provided by ideological systems to soothe the aching reality of perpetual existential crisis?" Lo-fi began to jump around with exasperation. "I said I'm ready!" she said with firm conviction. The hooded figure held out the purple pill, and within seconds, Lo-fi had downed it.

Living By Design: A Surreal Autopsy

She arrived with no name. Just a sealed envelope marked: Living by Design. No reception. No welcome drink. Only a single inscription carved into green stone: 'Design or Disappear'.

The Aesthetes: A Fractured Philosophy

In the heart of Berlin, a city defined by its raw creativity and restless energy, two unconventional individuals joined forces to reshape the cultural landscape. Ethan Vale, a curator turned cultural strategist, believed in the transformative power of beauty and influence. He saw the world through a Platonic lens, where ideals and perfection reigned, and art was a tool to elevate society. Amara Cole, his partner in the venture, was a sharp eyed pragmatist who believed in grounding art in truth. A devotee of Stoicism, Amara valued complexity, resilience, and the untold stories woven into each piece of work. For her, art wasn’t about pleasing the masses; it was about reflection, meaning, and unvarnished honesty. Together, they founded LOCUS, an avant-garde gallery that initially promised to celebrate both visionaries and unsung talent.
