Electric Dreams//Digital Nightmares

A digital pop-up; a nightmare bleeds into reality.
Underground raves, designer drugs, and dreams in the daytime. 

In Electric Dreams/Digital Nightmares, the Latchkeys receive a psychic call for help from a burgeoning AI, leading them to exploring the threshold of dreams and reality (virtual or otherwise). Enter a world of hackers, underground raves, and secret websites. Fall in love with your computer, and your computer might just fall back in love with you.
