VIRAL ENERGY is a speculative future inside the metaverse. It explores our dependency and animistic nature towards our screens and how self-centered technologies evoke connection yet produces loneliness. It is the first episode in The Life Game series, exploring the whirlwind relationship between ME and their digital twin MI. Are they meant to be together? Are they really the same or do they have different intentions?

The interactivity makes use of the pop up device, whose code was originally created by Ethan Zuckerman. It seemed fairly innocent at the time, however the internet swallowed and transmuted the pop-up, radically changing online advertising and surveillance capitalism. It is an invasive technology, that affects our daily lives and mental health.
