We
Individual minds spend immense energy maintaining their borders. "We" explores the intoxicating, biological relief of dropping those boundaries and allowing separate centers of awareness to synchronize into a single entity.
The heavy sensation of being alone vanishes the exact moment your mind locking into the rhythm of the crowd.

We
Unknown Location
The heavy sensation of being alone vanishes the exact moment your mind locking into the rhythm of the crowd.
The Dropped Border
ou spend nearly all of your energy guarding the rigid boundaries of your own identity. But what exactly happens when a crowded stadium takes a collective breath? Where does the boundary of the individual end when a choir hits a perfect harmony? If the heavy sensation of being alone can vanish so quickly in a crowd, was the boundary ever truly there?
The Synced Frequency
How can entirely separate biological nodes synchronize so flawlessly? When you fall deep into a conversation, and the separation between your mind and theirs momentarily ceases to exist, what have you tapped into? Is "We" an illusion created by empathy, or is the solitary "I" the illusion, and "We" the actual bedrock structure of reality?
The Relief of Yielding
Why does the experience of "We" feel so profoundly intoxicating? Is the constant maintenance of the self simply exhausting? When you yield to a current much larger than yourself—in a movement, in a rhythm, or in deep love—are you losing who you are, or are you finally taking a rest from the heavy labor of being an individual?
