MARS EVE

The Mars Relic

A worn magazine-style cover titled The Mars Relic, subtitled A Human Life Dreaming Itself Through Machines. A bald, green-skinned, heavily muscled man, Mars's self-portrait figure, seen from behind, pulls open the doors of an ornate black cabinet. Inside, a glowing pixel heart floats above a heap of photographs, sketchbooks, VHS tapes, small televisions and roses. Chip, a small horned girl with black and white hair, sits on top of the cabinet holding a marker. A torn note at the lower right lists journals, paintings, memories, mistakes, dreams, code, ghosts and love files, ending: all of it real.
