Projection

This short animated video is inspired by shadow play probably the oldest onscreen entertainment known to humanity and from a fascinating hypothesis that shadow play may have inspired Platos Allegory of the Cave and with it the question of the nature of reality. Projection explores this question following classical philosophy Is what we perceive a true reality or is it merely a shadow of something Or is it a shadow of a shadow and does this recursion ever end The visual style of the video is loosely inspired by the distorted and evocative aesthetics of German Expressionist cinema of 1920s. This unique visual language created with the aid of AI tools like ImageFX and KLING along with audio by Suno and ElevenLabs immerses the viewer in a world where reality is fluid and perception is subjective.
