On January 12th 2003, in Phoenix (Arizona), a 21-year old computer addict died
of
an overdosis of prescription drugs while chatting on the internet.
Soon after this tragic event, a text file containing a transcription of the dialogs
that occured in the chatroom appeared on numerous websites.
Re-processing the dialogs recorded before, during and after his death, the N3krozoft
Ltd multimedia group expands the network tragedy into a caustic ectoplasmic
seance.
