Allure and Candy become goddesses. A man falls from the sky. Flowers + Mary Shelley fall in love. And cam girl Eurydice_19969 wants to make that ca$$$h. feminine octagon [or, aristotle can eat me] examines what it means to be femme and feminine, and how femininity is commodified and curated: socially, economically, and online. A rave, fever dream, and a non-linear narrative exploring and exploding Aristotelean structure.
