The sun is bright. A caucasian grandma sits on the grass. She smiles at the camera. Caresses two small dogs. It's a peaceful summer day. Three seconds later, your brain notices something is off. Her face morphs slowly. Her mouth twitches.
I don't know what I just watched, but as I flick my finger up, I go deeper into this Instagram rabbit hole. There are more posts. Some of them are strange satires that play on the idea of the illuminati controlling the world.
As Oslo-based interdisciplinary visual artist Edmond Yang tells me through Instagram: "At the moment, two of my videos have over 300 million views combined, with an accumulated watch time of nearly 100 years. It's surreal to think I've consumed a century of human attention."
