Synopsis

Following her big hit, American Amnesiac, Raptosh’s Human Directional zigzags across consciousness, searing through old patterns of thought and offering new directions for the mind, heart, and world. Raptosh points the way to what Montaigne called “unlearning how to be a slave”. With the deadly precision of the fey, Human Directional reveals the heartbreak and absurdity of our world by exploring – and often exploding – its most sacred memes.
