Among Josh Harris’ experiments featured in the film is the art project „Quiet: We Live in Public,“ an Orwellian, Big Brother type concept developed in the late ’90s which placed more than 100 volunteers in a human terrarium under New York City, with many webcams following and capturing every move they made. This concept was later stopped by the New York Police Department.
On the Swedish tv-show „Kobra“, Harris stated that he had been widely influenced by the 1998 movie The Truman Show. He strongly believes that the technological singularity will be reached and the human being will cease to be an individual, while the machine becomes the new king of the jungle.
After his human terrarium experiment, Harris started filming and broadcasting himself at his home with his girlfriend at the time, which eventually led to a breakup.
