Workers of Tomorrow is a series of Augmented Reality billboard posters, 4 films and 2 essays. An artwork of socialist science fiction exposing a near future where humanity has been lost through the metamorphosis of jobs.
"We don't want your jobs, we want your souls"
Mirroring Fredrich Engels’ depiction of ‘Social Murder’ in 1845, this work of art depicts the world of 2099, where our unique humanity has been drained through digital colonialism. Poverty and hoarded resources force our workers into capitalist zombification, void of individualist humanity, undemonstrative to avoid offense, to remain productive.
