RUNNER-UP - SYMBIOSIS 2024
_unquantifiable_ presents a week-long observational study of Homo sapiens, focusing on individual H.2218, a human being in an urban setting. Using three methodologies — systematic behavioral observations, a neural-psycho resonance interface, and subjective interviews — the authors examine human behavior, revealing a tendency for solitary activities, repetitive tasks, and fleeting social interactions. However, the study reveals hidden layers of human motives and emotions that can’t be explained, leaving the true nature of humanity just out of reach. . .
