Each work carries a strong sense of space: homes, subways, laundromats, saunas — online and offline, full of contemporary texture. Sex is the desire to live; when facing death, I feel small, and each night becomes a luxury. At some point, I stopped saying “forever” and began saying “the rest of my life,” though what remains may be only tonight.

This title quotes Tarcy Su’s 1998 song “The Whole World in Chaos.” In this playlist, we encounter all kinds of collapse: so many cars, so many chases, so much longing that goes unanswered.
