Will I Exist Within You?

Overview

Will I Exist Within You? is an immersive exploration of a human duality: the desire to connect with others, and the fear of suffering from that connection.

The experience follows an existential journey through the perspective of a torn individual, observing how social interactions can shape someone’s essence over time.

Research foundation

This diploma project extends a reflection that began during my thesis work on the influence of video games on personal development—more specifically, on parasocial bonds formed between players and the characters that accompany them.
