This was the first time I photographed the perimeter fence of Decentraland. The fence shifts and sometimes I can't find it and I end up on an infinite run. Sometimes the world beyond it is loaded and I see grass, and sometimes it shows me the world structure beneath before it is loaded. These are the things we are not supposed to see. I love that. Born out of a National Geographic magazine assignment to explore the far edges of virtual worlds, bringing back photographs made with virtual cameras.
