The Colour out of space

This video traces a train ride leaving the city to the countryside, and crossing all the landscapes that it is possible to cross during such a trip. Gated communities, CBD, bridges, highways, the viewer is witnessing the variations of the landscape generated by the speed and changing colors of the environment, oscillating between psychedelic delirium and futuristic vision.

With the voice of François Bon.
