Moby & The Void Pacific Choir - 'Are You Lost In The World Like Me?' (Official Video) https://youtu.be/VASywEuqFd8

Are You Lost In The World Like Me? refers to the music video for Moby & The Void Pacific Choir's song "Are You Lost In The World Like Me?" (directed and animated by Steve Cutts) which was posted to YouTube in late 2016. The video is a black and white animation in the style of a retro, Max Fleischer cartoon, portraying a phone-obsessed world where everyone is on their devices, social media and not interacting with anyone around them. A boy, however, is the only person not on his phone. Meant to highlight how phones are bad, the video gained criticism years later in 2022 and 2023, when a post on X, formerly Twitter, wrongly identified it as the "Best Short" winner at the Venice Film Festival. From then on, many internet users made memes with the boy main character, humorously ridiculing him. Other discourse surfaced about animator Steve Cutts and his history of "deep" animations which also gained criticism.
