.333
In a parallel timeline to that of EsƨƎ-0, the former world’s New Age death-cult is founded by terminally online followers of network spirituality.
Unlimited to the geographical specifics of the Devil’s Canyon, EsƨƎ-0.333 is a totem to a hivemind nu-god made incarnate - with the inverse promise of a virtual deliverance, bestowed by the EsƨƎ-1.333 egregore-angel - made absolute on the eating of a blade of grass.
EsƨƎ-1.333 is a performance inspired by the figure of the girl online, the clear pill, Xiao Hong Shu, cuteness, virality and internet fandom. It includes an EsƨƎ-1 remix track produced by Oliver Smith.
