Anti-Alias
Whether you flatten the world into binaries, or allow for nuance, complexity, and blurry edges.
Mike Paterniti and the West End Cemetery Community
Anti-Alias is about allowing for nuance and complexity rather than forcing things into clean categories. Mike Paterniti had been trying to sort the cemetery community into 'real intimacy' or 'not real intimacy' — and Jeff's disappearance forced that binary to break down. His eventual landing point — 'intimate but not intimate' — is Anti-Alias fully switched on. He stopped needing the relationship to be one thing and accepted it as genuinely both.
