The 1975 and Ben Ditto have curated an online exhibition of 14 artists responding to tracks from ‘NOACF’.
15 Lu Yang responds to ‘Playing On My Mind’.
Lu Yang’s commission for The 1975 is performed in the virtual world by his nonbinary digital alter-ego Doku, whom he’s constructed using the latest in 3D scanning, motion capture and digital modelling technology. 50 of his facial expressions have been recreated from ultra-high quality scans, while Doku’s pop choreography was performed by a dancer turned motion-capture puppeteer. His sneakers are glowing neon. His bare torso is lit up with incandescent circuitry. His hands leave trails of violet effervescence in the air.
“In the virtual world,” says Yang, “I was able to do things such as choosing my own gender-neutral body and creating an appearance that reflects my own sense of beauty, which are not possible in real life. I consider Doku as my digital reincarnation. He is me but someone else at the same time. Just like the Buddhist concept of alayavijnana [storehouse consciousness], he represents a stream of consciousness which lingers in different worlds and different selves.”
Unleashed from the constraints of having a physical body, Doku is free to dive into the mysteries of the universe and try to establish a greater sense of his own identity. “On a planet where time and space no longer limit our minds,” says Yang, “to live is to create and explore. Emptiness and loneliness become the ultimate romance.”
He shows us how our shared virtual world, the world of digital creation and imagination, the world in which you’re watching his film, is not so different from the planet without time and space of his imagination: it’s a creative place where we can play with our identities and explore ourselves, our many parallel selves, and prepare those selves for new dimensions and universes. A whole new cosmos of infinite possibility stretches before us.

I love the lyrics. "I won't get clothes online because I get worried about the fit. That rule don't apply concerning my relationships, see I keep getting this stuff wrong, Take me out. put me on." because it's really deep and also it's just so true for so many people as they don't wanna jump to conclusions before everything starts and don't wanna be judged before they're given a try. That's just what I think but I know im not completely right.

PLAYING ON MY MIND (THE 1975)
Will I live and die in a band?
My consciousness controls my hand
She can't swim very well (oh, you wouldn't be able to tell)
Let's find something to watch then watch our phones for half the time
When we go for food, you have yours and I'll have mine
It says, "Don't take these pills if you've been drinking any wine"
Oh, these things, they have been playing on my mind
These things, they have been playing on my mind
I think I've seen the side of every road
They all lead somewhere, I've been told
Will I get divorced when I'm old? (Oh, why am I always alone?)
And I met one of your friends and it was dead nice, he was fine
But he said things that interest me exist outside of space and time
Now, I know I should've left it, but who says that? What a sigh
It all kicked off and it's been playing on my mind
The whole thing has been playing on my mind
I think it's strange that I still call you
When I've got nothing to say
The truth is that I still adore you
And nothing really matters anyway
And I won't get clothes online 'cause I get worried 'bout the fit
That rule don't apply concerning my relationships
See, I keep getting this stuff wrong, take me out, put me on
Oh, these things, they have been playing on my mind
The whole thing has been playing on my mind
Oh, it's all been just playing on my mind

I like how this gives me the feeling of "this is our type of music, and only ours its a secret"

This looks like one of those weird dreams you have that you don't tell anyone (Coz it's weird) but you never forget it. Although that might just be me.

Medicine: "Said I, I adore you"
Playing on my mind: "The truth is that I still adore you"
If it's really a reference within Medicine's context, then this is so fucking sad man...

I swear all of their music takes you back to your first love. Extremely nostalgic 🎶

I used to be so lost in a tornado of drug addiction and self abuse...but that was 30 years ago. Today, I am wildly successful and wealthy. This song reminds me of the gutter I came from...and this humbles me. And I need to stay humble. Because I'm only three bad decisions away from that very same gutter God dragged me out of. Thank you Matty...for keeping me grounded.

Lu Yang’s digital visualization of himself and the meaning behind his interpretation of this song is very powerful. Thanks for sharing. 🖤
