Two self-regulating ecosystems, foraged and assembled during lockdown, are displayed as if for scientific study.

The two screens, both so slow as to appear still, at first seem to be inert magnifying windows into these non-human worlds, but once an hour each burst into life, betraying an emotional and neurotic human behind the work. One, through artificially sped-up self-critical monologue, the other through an improbable, auto-tuned karaoke performance.
