[network] Night 378 | @Ecks | I am two and what is this | video [open]

[ecks]

[Many people here will recognize the inside of the sports shed on the campus of the elementary school. Newer people may not have seen Ecks's face before; she's a patchwork woman with a perpetually blank expression, and when she speaks (turning the tablet around as she does so, so that she's only visible for a moment at the start of the video) her voice is flat and inexpressive.

The new subject for viewing is a conical hat with the word 'DUNCE' written on it in big, red letters, which she has set on the floor of the building.]

What is this? What is a dunce? This hat is not comfortable or warm. What is its purpose?

Comments

[ecks]

Maybe.

[Ecks reaches into the frame again to pick the hat up. She holds it awkwardly in one hand and strikes it halfway up with the stump of her other wrist. It crumples under the blow.]

...It is very fragile for a helmet.

I think it is decorative.

It is not very good at being decorative. It is not an attractive hat.

[Pronounced the way it was written: as two separate words.]

Like gray clothes? Gray clothes look good. They look good because then you cannot be seen.

I do not know what they say I someone should wear.

...Okay.

[This has been very confusing. Ecks tries to link it back to the original topic.]

The hat is not important?

[0thingsonmymind]

yes

[ecks]

Understood.

[maybe]
