“Cartoon Darkness is about local weather disaster, struggle, AI, tiptoeing on the eggshells of politics, and other people feeling like they’re serving to by having a voice on-line once we’re all simply feeding the info beast of Massive Tech, our modern-day god. It’s about the truth that our era is spoon-fed data. We seem like adults, however we’re kids endlessly cocooned in a shell. We’re all passively wolfing down distractions that don’t even trigger pleasure, sensation or pleasure, they simply trigger numbness,” says Amy Taylor.

“Cartoon Darkness is driving headfirst into the unknown, into this looming sketch of the long run that feels horrible however doesn’t even exist but. A childlike darkness.

Doing the dishes cleansing, however by no means the one consuming the meal, so shut but it surely’s by no means sufficient, and making an attempt to have a good time the ignorance of youth regardless of it being robbed away, so selecting ignorance, selecting to be dumb and selecting love, regardless of all the pieces, selecting dangerous choices for love, for all times, as a result of it’s brief, or is it lengthy? Surrendering to pleasure, surrendering to being a imaginative and prescient, in your personal energy, as a result of making choices primarily based on emotion somewhat than logic is liberating, and regardless of the exterior inferno, you stroll away unscathed, via flames, burnt however solely superficially, unstopped, unaffected, unhuman. Life is figure, life shouldn’t be free, we will by no means work sufficient as a result of the tip objective does not exist, so all we will do is select to be unsuitable.”
