TERMINALS by Varien

About TERMINALS

Terminals is a transportive experience into the dark underbelly of 90s subculture where anon punks, 1337 geeks, and hackers ruled the internet. This is the pinnacle of uncensored expression, gritty street culture, and societal cynicism; best viewed on CRT monitor via floppy disc.

The collection takes cues from digital dystopias like The Matrix, Ghost in the Shell, and Ergo Proxy while touching on themes of hyper-consumerist counter-statements a la American Beauty and Fight Club. It’s an existential love letter to a transitory era not unlike the web3 period we find ourselves in today.

Each Terminal was musically and visually produced by Varien, including photographs captured in Hong Kong and glitched out IRC windows with scanlines mimicking tape scratches. The audio is grounding in it’s modern production, while exploring parallels between past and future, influenced by a variety of ambient, noise, and experimental sounds.
