Each prisoner's song is a confession they didn't know they were making. The music doesn't explain them, it reveals what they've been hiding from themselves, and you hear it the moment the beat drops. By the time you understand what they actually did, the song has already made you complicit in their guilt.
Ten prisoners face judgment once more in the second season of MILGRAM, a collaborative multimedia music project from DECO*27 and Takuya Yamanaka. Es comes to inside a facility named Milgram, face to face with an odd talking creature called Jackalope. As the prison guard, Es must probe the minds of ten inmates, each held for causing a death in some way. The season unfolds through ten music videos, one per inmate, starting with Haruka and ending with Kotoko. Each song raises the same hard questions: can the ends justify the means, and does intent matter when someone has died? The line between good and evil blurs, yet Es is left with only two verdicts to give: innocent or guilty.
