Really trying to live in this world I'm creating and thinking about the spaces these characters inhabit and move around in. Replacing the sliding doors with glass-paneled, swinging balcony doors—I felt these would be more in tune with Lady Baz's space.

We've watched, read, and played dystopian, sci-fi tales for so long, but to witness it in real life is surreal and discombobulating.

Standing in the grocery store and hit with a very surreal sense of what things are going to be in the not too distant future.
