Animation Experimental Artificial Intelligence 3D CGI Dystopia Reality as Simulation simulated consciousness
Synopsis
Similar to Circe — the mythological goddess exiled on a lonely island — kennedy+swan’s protagonist finds herself alienated. Surrounded by antique statues, she lives isolated in an inhospitable desert landscape until one day she hears the hypnotic melody of the Oracle. Circe questions this Oracle, which answers in cryptic, algorithm-generated images. It gradually dawns on her that she is merely tracing the censored shadows of a higher reality, skewed and distorted by the artificial intelligence app Wombo.

3D scans of handmade models and figures are the foundation of the stereoscopic film, which are brought to life using motion capture technology. A neural network generated the images of the Oracle.
