OVERVIEW -
ξ½οΈ AWAKEΒ ξ½οΈ
A loud hand-clap or sudden movement awakens HYPNOSΒ β its laser-drawn eyes fixed on the CRT ahead as it loops through thousands of iconic animated gifs.
ξ½οΈ ASLEEPΒ ξ½οΈ
Left undisturbed, HYPNOS drifts back to sleep β itsΒ eyes shift into crescent moons, as the CRT transitions to a live feed of the sculpture quietly watching, and dreaming, of itself.
