Welcome STAYTOXIC Badge

STAYTOXIC™ investigates the semiotics of ego and decay in digital subcultures through an intricate choreography of gamified dysfunction.

Using the web as a tool of experiential investigation, the project erects a ludic structure for engaging late, post-modern capitalist pathologies.

These interactive modules call users to navigate performative selfhood within value constructs that are at once fabricated, entertaining and ostentatiously hollow.

Central to the work is the belief that desire, intimacy, and identity can all be monetized. Refracting the economics of love and attention through performance.

This, in turn, exposes the persistent delusion that everything might be priced, branded, or redeemed, and situates postmodern excess as a recursive echo of ancient impulses, in contrast to tradition.

In tools like Chadculator which gauges the transactional viability of romantic pursuit, or OxenHoes which assigns worth via ethnic taxonomy, the project reveals a continuity between algorithmic objectification and archaic systems of social value, wherein metrics of worth, once literal livestock, now masquerade as digital efficiency.
