[CLASSIFICATION: THE BACKROOMS] [LOG ID: #TML-BACKROOMS-LEVEL0-05] [STATUS: RESTRICTED // PART 5 OF ∞] [SUBJECT: THE BACKROOMS LEVEL0]

Gestaltzerfall (Gestalt Collapse):

The total erosion of holistic perception.

A process by which the world is degraded into meaningless "yellow fragments" as objective meaning is purged from reality.

In this state, the observer is no longer a witness to a room, but a constituent part of the debris, eternally dissolving alongside the wallpaper.

ゲシュタルト崩壊

[g0rror]

This is a Japan urban legend.

Legend goes if in 30 consecutive days, you have to look at the mirror and ask "Who are you?" ten times, one a day, everyday. The subject will become crazy.

So a guy named 笙井 (Sheng Jing) was offered money to try out this urban legend with video as proof. Fast forward to Day 4 of the experiment, he began to feel very tired. He fainted at his workplace in mid conversion. At Day 18 of the experiment, he became confused and ate a Styrofoam bowl after finishing his noodle. Day 20, he did not go to work and was uncontactable via handphone. In fact, he is still filming himself doing the experiment. He couldn't stand by himself. Day 25, his eyes rolled backwards exposing eye white. The image in the mirror started to get freaky. Day 28, the mirror image of him is standing tall and straight but the real him is crowing in discomfort. Day 29, the last footage of him. He slice the side of his lips to make it look bigger. In the mirror, an image of him lifeless standing. The real him looks at the video cam laughing.
