in this video, i explore and go over the history of liminal spaces and how the backrooms made their way onto the internet. explained is the nostalgia and childhood behind these liminal or "dreamcore / weirdcore" images, the dreamlike state they depict, along with video games that convey liminal spaces very well. some of these games include sonic adventure 2, silent hill, skyrim, animal crossing, and super mario 64. mostly nintendo like usual. do you find the strangely familiar photos comforting or unsettling? what causes these images to invoke such emotion or anemoia? it's all an iceberg. watch this video essay of my deep dive to find out!
