For @Eliangel’s release, Mi Vibe, we created a video, where she and her peers could co-exist. The entirety of the video takes place in a Windows XP desktop, we created this space as a place where all these different artists and friends could collaborate, and share a space, despite the distances. Many of the people that appear in the window, are located in different parts of latin america, still through technology and art they are able to keep on collaborating, and keep in contact with each other.
The nostalgic throwback to the early 2000’s aesthetic is a reminder of how things used to be simpler, but even though things have changed, the essence remains the same. Mi Vibe is also about being true to oneself, our digital selves allow us to present ourselves as we want to be, letting us escape our conditioned physicality and backgrounds. The video serves both as an exploration of digital authenticity and a reduction of distances inside the virtual sphere.
