Time folds in on itself
The coffin twitches
A pepe the frog weeps

May Mga Uod Ang Utak Mo is an autopsy of the self. Looping through ritual and ceremony- Sean Rivera wrestles with the death of his father in an arena of internet echoes. 4chan, reddit, the manosphere- a universe hopping, red-pill popping extravaganza that throws time in the bin and warps the fabric of reality itself.
Pay respect to Sean Rivera’s solo debut, a twisting labyrinth of grief in the digital age made with support from Creative New Zealand.
