In what seems to me a stunning & revelatory coincidence, the same photo-licensing agency responsible for the first images of JonBénet Ramsey is also responsible for the first images of COVID-19, including THE image of the virus. https://twitter.com/humanvibration/status/1215115949235482626

What is remarkable to me may still be invisible to others, so let me take this one step further.
ZUMA Press specializes in Trauma Porn.
If there is a traumatic event, ZUMA Press likely provided the first, most viral images from that event.

What's also remarkable to me is that *many* of the photographers associated with ZUMA Press seem to specialize in 3D imagery, more so than photography.
Take this image, which appears to be a recent ZUMA Press photo by an individual named Zikri Maulana.
Let's take a closer look.

And this chilling image, by photographer Cai Yang.
It seems our friend Cai Yang is also deeply involved in the illusory world of computer-generated 3D-imagery.

Documenting the Zeitgeist, photographer Chris Putnam captures the essence of the CoronaVirus in one image.
What else is Chris Putnam involved in?
Right. 3D.
Chris Putnam invented a method and system for generating slope grading transitions in CAD drawings.
I mean, go figure.

Is it possible that CoronaVirus is code for our imminent awakening to the computer-generated world around us?
We are certainly seeing UnReality overtake our Reality, to a point of indistinction.
Much more to come on this fascinating technology and the far-reaching implications.
