A hypnagogic machine placed between these two characters becomes a swirling vortex that sucks them into a phantasmagorical simulation where they take on different forms and styles while travelling through different levels of a surreal gamespace. This video work transports the viewer into a fantastical urban landscape of colour and light, not unlike the bright lights of Times Square itself.&nbsp;<br><br></p>
