Silver Hammer
Nick Ryan
Troy, NY
A personal account of mass psychosis.
“Art is not a mirror, nor is it a hammer. Art is a silver hammer that reflects reality as it shapes reality.” An autobiographical horror-fiction concerning disinformation, non-linear warfare, arson, troll-farms, fireworks, psychic attacks, tik tok, and our ever-eroding sense of what is true and what is false.
