Eraserhead – Rimozione sicura

“Eraserhead – Safe removal” has no story behind it, only Instagram stories: Instagram substitutes reality, reducing its space, and driving its time with an algorithm. Instagram is in a place where all futuristic forecasts seem to be ignored and rewritten, a place that is jammed with alarming states of mind: we now know that 15 minutes of fame have become 15 seconds, and that every self-manifestation is doomed to disappear in 24 hours. The subjects of these stories experiment and perpetuate their personal satisfaction, and, at the same time, their own worthlessness. They act and express themselves in a place that tampers with, and undermines, everything that it absorbs: feelings, intelligence, tragedy, sex.
