A work in multiple episodes, originated from personal thoughts and notes revolving around Millennials as the living legacy of an ongoing soft apocalypse, “DID I BORN THE 31 DEC 1999?” (in collaboration with Marion Goix, 2016–ongoing) overplays a sense of urgency by means of an ill-formed capitalized question to interweave a theory-fiction about hallucinations, love at the end of the world, dreamtime, currencies, monuments, and the invisibility of catastrophe.
