In 2015 a blue dog named BARC emerged from the mind of a human. In 2018 (Year of the Dog) the human vowed to represent himself as BARC. After several years of interacting with this new avatar, they have come to live as one entity in two planes of existence allowing them to smuggle information between both worlds. As the human continued through life his experiences were filtered and warped into the world of the blue dog then regurgitated back into the dimension you are reading this from now. The effects of this relationship creates a reaction between both, eventually leading to the point of confusion about which is leading the dance. Both have urinated in alley ways, both have spent time in the jungle amongst wildlings, both have experimented with spiritual entities, and both have stomped around cities as giants. Recently it seems like the human is following the ripple effects that the dog makes in his world, almost as a medium to prove the canine's existence. The human is obsessed with this dog, but does the dog think about the human? How much information does it take for an imaginary being to become real?
