"There is an anaesthetic of familiarity, a sedative of ordinariness which dulls the senses and hides the wonder of existence. We can recapture that sense of having just tumbled out to life on a new world by looking at our own world in unfamiliar ways." - Richard Dawkins
This film is the result of a group project created during fall 2016 at UAL Chelsea College of Arts, London. Groups were required to create a 2 minute experimental short film using London as a catalyst.
