This series of triptychs culled system maps, digital experiments, historical photographs, and more from the image archive of Cody Bissonette (World Truth Advocate Ltd.). Cody Bissonette was a parafictional character — a graphic designer, played by various actors and scripted and directed by me — who from 2019 to 2022 participated in exhibitions, talks, and conferences across public and online venues.
