The rhythmic thump of Montell Jordan’s "This Is How We Do It" vibrates through the humid Jersey air, competing with the frantic clatter of plastic as kids on the sidewalk slam heavy metal kinis onto stacks of Pogs. I frame a shot of a girl in a plaid slip dress and knee-high socks, her tiny backpack swinging as she dodges a group of boys trading cardboard discs.
Some unwashed slacker in a grubby flannel leans against a brick wall, eyes glued to a flickering screen while mumbling something about the information superhighway. The silver sheen of a passing Lexus catches the afternoon light, drowning out the distant sirens with the roar of a world obsessed with glossy new tech and cheap gas.
