DISORIENTING REPORTAGE

Prior to the first shoot
a star is photo-shaped. It gets
touched. Studies show

8.68% of reported disorientations
event from too many lights
to determine. The eye, the object

that objectifies. Banking
on liquid displays, backers
invest in faces. Contribute.

Celebrate symmetry. Flashlights
& other transient sources
1.8% a portion of that false.
