The Observers. (Click each photo for individual video)
Each Observor was asked where they noticed their known path, core values and truths being intersected by a disconnecting factor; something that spun their world or caused on a daily basis an uncomfortable compliance.....also how they reconnected after such an encounter and what they most wanted the Wicked Engine to take on.
