Office

On April 3 2018, the YouTuber Nasim Aghdam killed herself after wounding three people with a gun in the YouTube headquarters in San Bruno, US. She was reported to be blaming YouTube for censoring and demonetising her videos that were strongly propagating veganism and animal rights. Officium is a Latin word with various meanings, including "service", "(sense of) duty", "courtesy", "ceremony" and the like. 'Office' is part of the 'Audio Library of a Viewable World', a series of website-specific YouTube videos that use the platforms features as often interactive elements of the artwork. Each video's sounds are all taken from the eponymous category in the YouTube audio library. Watch the full work on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLkrmEz14GzNNo_jmf_dmmzs-xiZfPVjji
