the tinopener's art: virtual existence
A track somewhere between synth pop and ambient, telling the
story of the gap between the virtual existence of a social
media entity and the reality.
Lyrics
I don't exist - what you see are just some bits and bytes. Colour information for your eye - a visual appearance compiled of trained patterns in well-known design. What you believe to see is the truth about a person, an idea of it; but the truth is: you see nothing real, you see, just what you want to see, just what we want you to see. what you wish is what you see just a remix of reality in a virtual existence my virtual existence white noise of vacuity blueprint for an entity in a virtual existence my virtual existence You make notes, you write messages, you think that you communicate, you try to tell the world what you like and read what others pretend to like. You take part in this simulation of relationship, a digital community, the image of society, and think that you at least see the shadow of something real; but the truth is: you see nothing real, you even don't see the digital mirror image of something real, you see, just what you want to see, just what we want you to see. what you wish is what you see just a remix of reality in a virtual existence my virtual existence white noise of vacuity blueprint for an entity in a virtual existence my virtual existence switch off the light if you wanna see watch the stars at night "feel" their light for free network of light for your universe data stream so bright message in reverse
