While time is typically linear and irreversible, the internet allows non-linear navigation of past spaces and states. The artist examines how news cycles grow shorter — even critical issues like climate change fade quickly. Using internet search data from multiple countries, "falling keywords" are visualized in a circular space, stacking, compressing, decomposing, and disappearing — embodying yearning and nostalgia for what cannot be returned to or no longer exists.
