View of War in late 18th century Europe, Immanuel Kant:

“War itself, if it is carried on with order and with a sacred respect for the rights of citizens, has something sublime in it, and makes the disposition of the people who carry it on thus, only the more sublime, the more numerous are the dangers to which they are exposed, and in respect of which they behave with courage. On the other hand, a long peace generally brings about a predominant commercial spirit, and along with it, low selfishness, cowardice, and effeminacy, and debases the disposition of the people.”

2021 - Sublimity - Part 1

This art was one of the first I made for my “Doppelganger” series for my master degree. I had the idea when me and a friend made a zine about sublimity. I thought about traditions and rituals of death, funerals, wake etc. that still hold a lot of sublime power. But while drawing a lot happened to the work: it was suddenly not about that at all. Took me three tries until I liked the drawing. Still one of my favorite works, even though I would do some things different now.

Currently on: level 37.1 “The Deep End”

I really hate it here. It took me so long to go out of level 37, only to go to something worse. But well, that’s how backrooms work.

I’m standing here, in cold water. Trying to think straight. But I can’t. I feel so wrong here. My head hurts and I feel like my legs are going to freeze. 

At first I thought that I’m still on level 37, but no. It’s worse here, everything’s so dark.

It isn’t the worst level, but I still hate it so much. I don’t even know why.

Time to go.

Currently on: level 37 “Sublimity”

When I came here after days of struggling with level 7 and earlier level 6, I felt really safe. Too safe.

I was scared that something will jump out from somewhere. But nothing like that happened. So I’m just sitting here wth Fluffy, on platform, observing the water and writing this. It’s seriously really nice and calm here.

Only disturbing thing is fact that I feel completely alone. There is literally no one here. No entities. No colonies. No travelers (or maybe they’re are here, but I haven’t meet them anywhere). Just me. And water.

Completely different from the past two levels. 

Level 6 was horrifying. Survival difficulty 4 isn’t nothing.

But even if level 7 was supposed to be easier, I hated it even more. I can swim, but after level 7, I won’t do it for next year. It isn’t called “Thalassophobia” for nothing.

I’m thinking about it again. I’ll end for now. 

Maybe someday, I’ll write what happened on level 7. But not now. Now, the memory is too fresh and traumatic.

Boiler’s project for a royal library compared to the American shopping mall and 99 cent by Gursky. Much modern sublimity and anxiety fuel to be found all around u <3
