Our group decided to relate our folie to a prevalent issue in today's society: with the increasing popularity of online social media networks, people are becoming more and more self focused and absorbed, making a big deal of the small things and a small deal of the bigger issues that are occurring in the real world. The aim of our folie, therefore, is to serve as a reminder, or 'reality check' that this is not a healthy mindset to have, and that we, as individuals, are not the centre of the universe.
