通过熟悉的界面——我们的数字化自我所处的新型架构——我们从物理身体的约束中解放出来。在这种脱离实体的体验中，我们的触觉被限制在光滑的屏幕表面，眼睛将成为游走在虚拟世界中的唯一向导。不禁令人思考，心灵能否一同从身体中分离出来?

Navigating through familiar interfaces -that new kind of architecture that our digital self inhabits- we are liberated from the constraints of a physical body. In this disembodied experience our eyes become our guides in these virtual environments while the rest of our sensory input is muted and our tactile experience is constrained to the sleek surface of a screen.However, can the mind be divorced from the body?

当情感跨越了屏幕的表面，我们观察，我们交流，我们感觉。我们的身体会在视觉刺激的一刹那做出相应的反应，而眼泪和唾液大概是某种情感的物化体现，是一种与数字深渊在表面相遇的有机物质。

Emotions transcend the screen surface. We see, we communicate, we feel. Our body reacts to the visual stimuli, tears, spit and cum are some kind of a materialization of emotions, an organic matter, meeting the surface of a digital abyss.

这些液体变成了一个个放大又扭曲的透明物质，并试图在二维的屏幕表面下探索的更为深远。但这里只有灰度、色彩渐变、像素、二进制数。或都没有？

Those bodily fluids become a magnifying –thus simultaneously distorting –glass trying to look deeper in the screen’s two dimentional surface. But there are only grayscales, color gradients, pixels, 0’s and 1’s. Or maybe not?
