In the work “Lost”, the disoriented patient gets lost among the layers of seaweed and cannot find an exit. No matter how many weeds the person pulls away, there are still more weeds in front of him. One of the symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease is that the patient will lose the sense of direction. I hope to show the patient’s anxiety and helplessness by getting lost in the deep sea.
A goldfish passed him. A common rumor is that goldfish only have three seconds of memory. Although this myth is wrong, (yes, the goldfish’s memory can last for at least five months), I still choose to use goldfish as a symbol of memory loss. The red and blue borders on the screen make the screen look a little dizzy, which is to create a sense of disorientation.
