[Vid] This Is A Cell

by awsok

Summary:

one became two. two became four. then eight, sixteen, thirty-two. the rhythm of the dividing pair...

...which becomes the structure of everything.

Notes:

• For inimitablereel.

imagine wrecking your relationship so badly you fuck up an alien. look at it lena. it has anxiety ...and now it's going to couple's therapy with you. (well. i say *you*.)

this was a lot of fun to make! pretty different from the vids i've made before in that there are no lyrics - not entirely sure how i feel about the end result but it was fun to try something new. i usually have a pretty strong idea/thesis statement when i start a vid, but i really enjoyed discovering what the vid was going to be about as i made it (which turned out to loosely be a lena/biologist character study). hope you like it!

PHYSICAL/VISUAL TRIGGERS: flickering/strobing bright light at 2:21 for about 5 seconds
AUDITORY TRIGGERS: there's some static in the audio - not sure if that would be an issue for anyone but wanted to flag it up!
OTHER TRIGGERS: canon-typical gore/body horror, not lingered upon but still present. more details and timestamps in the end notes if you want to be forewarned!

Notes:

CANON-TYPICAL GORE/BODY HORROR:
1:17 a half-decaying human corpse is stuck to a wall and merged with fungus
1:27 small flowers are growing out of the arms of a character
1:33 a body with its throat ripped out
