REFERENCE: Lost in Space

Garden State (2004) directed by Zach Braff







What interests me the most is always the human and the psychological behind the façade of surface. I like the idea that someone can become so immersed, so lost in their environment, they barely, if at all exist. You can't distinguish yourself from the world or from anything else anymore. I look at our struggle with alienation and isolation in society, our tendency to become faceless and hidden.

"...in such a press of humanity -of strangers- individuals become as memorable as lampposts. Certain people retreat gladly into a world of anoymity, others enter that world and despair." -P91, Too Close for Comfort by Paul M. Insel & Henry Clay Lindgren
