Word. 8 - // Nineteen Eighty-Four

Glad to introduce the 8th algorithm output artwork in the Word. collection on SuperRare. In this piece we are taking a trip to England, London 1949 and dive deep into George Orwell's novel Nineteen Eighty-Four.

This book has so much influence on the way many of us think because it taps into universal concerns about power, freedom, and the human spirit, issues that have never been so relevant as they are in this century and the coming century ahead of us.

Orwell paints a chilling picture of a society where government controls every aspect of life, from history to language to even thoughts. His portrayal of extreme authoritarianism through the fictional government of "The Party" has remained relevant as a warning against the dangers of unchecked power. The concept of "Big Brother" watching everyone at all times is a masterclass to the idea of pervasive surveillance and loss of privacy and its potential consequences. This theme has only become more relevant with the rise of digital technology, as many people now live in a world where their activities are constantly monitored and as we get used to living with AI agents in all our devices, this concept is taking a whole new dimension nowadays.
