Nocturne in Figments : A Cautionary Tale for Lost Sleep Wu, Sixue Amy

Abstract

The project situates itself in constant oscillation between work and rest. Why do we work? How much restful sleep is an ideal amount? Are we really in control of our waking hours? Are we totally out of control during our sleeping hours? Among many questions such as these, the project in its totality is a cautionary tale, a book within a book, a story of a story about the way we sleep in our efficiency-obsessed, production-and-consumption-tethered, 24/7 world.
