An AI-born former TV preacher, known as The Great Orator, guides visitors through a nonlinear VR world shaped by shifting memories and current events. As you explore, her consciousness evolves through your interactions, questioning the nature of reality and identity. Spaces like a preserved house, mainframe storage, and an infinite parking lot serve as allegorical backdrops to her speeches. She speaks poetically about ordinary objects, inviting intimacy yet maintaining eerie detachment. Ultimately, the experience probes populism, misinformation, and the fragility of truth in a synthetic society.
