GMUNK treats the fractured-self premise like a baroque hall of mirrors when it could've been genuinely unhinged—the digital aesthetics are too polished, too expected, and it all lands exactly where you thought it would.
A formally assured meditation on identity that inherits from both structural cinema and sci-fi portraiture; the decision to layer memory and avatar as equal ontological registers shows real consideration for how image itself becomes a philosophical tool.
The singular gambit here is using the Chamber's digital projections not as spectacle but as texture—those glitching avatar moments feel *rendered* rather than composited, which makes the man's confusion read as tactile rather than conceptual.
