What Are We?
24 January 2016
Is time immutable? Where do we fit in the universe? What is our future? What happens to consciousness? If we were to be cloned what about the transfer of consciousness? Can consciousness be transferred? In this short animated feature, a little girl, Emily, who is only aware of her immediate surroundings, is met by her future self. She is told of all the things that will happen to her and to her world? What seems to happen is a sort of unified sensibility that simply is! Little Emily at no point understands her future self and that's the point. There seems to be a story to be told, but like everything in the continuum, all the verbiage really makes no difference. Past, future, present, all blend into one thing. This is a startlingly provocative seventeen minutes and should not be missed.
