I have entered She is my aunt with an invisible body. The main protagonist (the Aunt) has thus comes alive from mymy staccato words; I have thus become t narration and he medium of the medium (the video). The camera enwraps the event like tentacles entwining on its prey, parasitizing with the news media. The camera captures all people inside the frame and turns them into characters. These characters, post-produced sound effects, and the Aunt (a conscious naming of the main protagonist) have morphed this video clip into a new event, turning away from the so-called reality. This process also displays how mediated information will alienate us from the real object and bond us with the virtual media images—the media is the truth maker, and the virtual image is truer than the true self.
