Pfeiffer references reality TV as relating to his thoughts on cinematic spectacle, he mentions how unnatural it is for actors to perform in front of a perceived audience and passing it as reality.

“It seems like reality itself is being formatted and tailored for precisely this situation, where whatever I do, I’m encouraged to think of myself as potentially being on TV or potentially being before an audience. And I think of that as becoming the definition of reality or the parameters for a kind of reality that we will live in, if we’re not already living in it now.”

The boundaries between what we define as reality and what technology and popular culture defines as reality has become even more blurred in today’s society. Dutch Interior was created in 2001, pre smart phones and before social media became a staple of everyday life.  Now, more so than ever, we are made to be spectacles for the internet world to observe. How we present ourselves through social media outlets has become, for some, the definition of reality. In a way, we go through life anticipating that we will have an audience, even if that is an online one; constantly taking pictures for Instagram and narrating our lives through ten second videos on Snapchat.
