Reverie.exe 2012

Directed by Wen Zhang · Animation · 1 min

A sleeping computer dreams of humans forms, transforming their digital data into abstract and playful shapes. Movements, emotions, and musical lines are added layer upon layer until the complexity overloads the system and the dream ends. Reverie.exe combines Microsoft Kinect motion capture and music-driven visuals in an exploration of the connection shared between humans and machines. This film was made as part of the 8th edition of the NFB's Hothouse apprenticeship.
