During lockdown, André Santos Martins virtually recreated his Berlin neighborhood. As an avatar, he strolled through the streets, noticing just how much is still in disarray. He openly contemplates the possibility of a cyber-society. Meanwhile, he travels the world in "Second Life," a virtual online recreation of our planet which was subject of much discussion during the early 2000s and is now an exemplary case of what has proven to be true for the entire internet: The commercialization of virtual spaces has effectively ruined any hopes for a free digital environment. And so, the artist and his avatars dwell in nostalgia of a time in which idealistic promises of the internet still seemed realizable.
