Moths don’t know if it’s moonlight or firelight in front of them when they fly into the flame. Moths trapped in a light cannot tell what is in front of them. Caught inside the man-made light trap, their innate ability betrayed them. Struggling between light and darkness, lost int the artificial light, living an infinite cycle of correction until exhaustion and death. I was also lost in the electronic light, confused by my illusions. Do I exist inside the screen in my hand, or the mothman in front of me, or am I part of the algorithm? None of these matters anymore. I can no longer stand a life without light.
飛蛾撲火時並不知道眼前的是月光還是火光。飛蛾被困燈光時無法分清眼前的是什麼。與生俱來的能力反而成為了陷入光陷阱的原因。在光暗之間掙扎，迷失，矯正。不斷循環，直至力竭而亡。而我亦迷失在人造光源中，被自己的想像迷惑。我到底存在於手中的屏幕，還是眼前的飛蛾人腦中，還是大數據中？這些都不重要了。我已經無法忍受沒有光的人生。
