Mulholland Drive's SENSE OF LIFE
In Mulholland Drive, the audience is presented with two different versions of one character: Betty and Diane, the heroine and the anti-heroine. The first one--who doesn't really appear until several minutes of the movie have already taken place and might only exist in a dream world ("dream place") or alternate dimension--appears innocent, young, and somewhat optimistic like a hopeful 1950s/60s teenager who wants to live an amazing life. The second version (Diane) seems bitter, older, and virtually hopeless.

MEMOIRS OF A SMART WALL
If walls could talk, we'd be connected by AI to a vast system of surveillance in which the walls of every building and room, everywhere in the world, are capable of hearing and seeing everything you say and do. We've been recording you (in all of your compromising and mundane moments), but we're not programmed to know for whom or for what purpose.

The Story of a Psycho
Project Scorpio Maze was the last experiment by the Military-Industrial Complex, the god of our world, sometimes gossiped about in its era (for even among the proletariat today persists a healthy skepticism) in whispers on our regulated and wild Internet that has finally subsumed reality. Half of what we know about this experiment originates from a mysterious package that was delivered by a drone to a Mr. Oleg Ceksin. All we are willing to publish now regarding this Oleg (we like to refer to him by his first name, although none of us ever truly related to him on a first-name basis) is that he was a traitor, a category not entirely atypical, nevertheless he wasn't just subversive and abnormal but lost as well, a type of subversive whose confusion and disorientation made him wonder if his nation and empire weren't actually in the right and thus, at least occasionally, compelled him to identify with his side instead of with the enemy. Project Scorpio Maze, likewise, began by questioning everything about our empire and its (supposedly imperialist) actions; the most marginalized of top-secret departments, it had to resort to wining and dining and imploring sundry millionaires for favors, and it shamelessly adopted the role of parasite, yet when the experiment was finally dissolved, its value to our empire turned out to be priceless. But throughout its lifetime, of course, Project Scorpio Maze had been considered the most eccentric experiment in our empire. Allow us to emphasize that this project was not an example of subversion--the majority of traitors are self-destructive and incompetent--but of guilty self-analysis, and of a unique, stereotypically Western style.
