To pay for rent, I conjured the personal video game fantasy of my roommate's infiltrating upon UCSB campus. We intend to fan the flames of his pride.

Depicted is Warhammer 40K, an MMORPG, in the aftermath of a vicious battle at UCSB. I, the craftsman, have wreaked the havoc of my patron's mind into reality, as surveyed by my adviser.

Video games are better than real life. But what happens when it becomes real life, on a real living room wall?
