“Babylon Overdrive was a vision of the future I spray-painted back in 1994. If your eyes were open you could see the trajectory things were going. From the gotta have it fiends to the throwaway society, our world wouldn’t be able to sustain our thirst.
Los Angeles was at its epicenter like a kind of modern day Babel. Prostitutes & producers, dealers & healers all willing to get on bended knee while riots & earthquakes, droughts & fires spun on repeat in the background—this city was destined for chaos.
Fast-forward to 2026 and this image is no longer a chaotic vision of the future, it is a reflection of our now. We had it good, but good wasn't good enough, we needed so much more. While we were sleeping the way of life that we developed throughout the 90s seemingly vanished overnight. How long will society stand down to the endless levels of fuckery designed to oppress humanity into submission?” - MEAR ONE
