Through this project I wanted to imagine a collective emotional consciousness, similar to what is theorized in the complex social culture of sperm whales. I wanted to imagine that we could not only empathize with one another but have a shared sense of self. What would it look like if there was something beyond physical or verbal intimacy? Would hurting, loving, and feeling together bring comfort or destruction? Perhaps connection could be enough to provide hope for survival. I wonder if care could extend beyond an action into a state of being, so we would never truly be alone.
