Authors Alexei Buldakov, Anastasia Ryabova

Attentionwhores means numerous competitors for our attention. Each element in the enormous garbage heap strives to become the most important. Each arbitrary motion strives to become regular. Every event must be understood. Hordes of nonentities ousted to the periphery of our attention, rotting away beyond the realm of topical problems, need the help of an artist to manifest their potential.
