Wardrobe

LOVEDAVID’s is-it-hand-drawn-or-an-Apple-pencil cartoon shows someone (with a bulge, admit you looked) opening a closet, getting dressed, and almost finishing an outfit. Animation drags said them through shadows and layers. We see pixels, formations, and then de-forming. The image struggles, exhausted (maybe from laziness cause rotoscoping is time consuming). Like Microsoft fonts automatically switching to Times, Wardrobe is a formal switch. Someone fixed ‘closet’ by removing its weight, code, attitude, settling for a cockier word. But the person dressing in Wardrobe probably wouldn’t say that. Who even says ‘wardrobe’? The person using ‘wardrobe’ as a word… Who is that? The changing-self is accompanied, or maybe welcomed, by clothes...
