I only recently realized how intrinsically tied to capitalism backrooms are.
While Chiwetel Ejiofor felt that the backrooms sensed the need Clark had for it and vice versa, Kane Parsons intends that the backrooms doesn’t choose anyone at all. I still think it’s nice, in a way, to think of how human it is to ascribe meaning to coincidence. To randomness. I never believed in fate, but to make something out of nothing is what assigning meaning is, right? A human application to an apathetic, indifferent thing. An act of creation and building. One thing that the failed architect achieved to build instead of destroy.
