Cloud Labour
«The key is not to be misled by objects or ornaments that seem overtly symbolic, or pay too much attention to things in prominent locations… such decorations are just fragmented marginal sensory information and as such can’t be translated into coherent output.»
Set in an unspecified dystopian future in which people known as ‘Proxies’ are paid handsomely to remove negative emotions from their clients, Peacock, a successful Proxy, trains her son Sky to join the profession.
