SERVER 2.2

Short Film

DIRECTION / DESIGN / MOTION

An exploration into the fabric of time and space, utilizing minimal user interfaces to interpret an undisclosed signal.

Server2.2 attempts to decipher meaning in communications, representing a satellite system scanning far reaching galaxies to identify FRB (fast radio bursts). The system runs analytics and contextualizes them in varying forms of visual display. Whilst processing the signal, a record of previous missions is intercepted by the system, breaking the linear narrative and contradicting the timestamp. As the scan resumes, the analysis is corrupted, and the system goes into shutdown. During the reprise the system streams through data as to navigate a course into the depths of space.

As a direct correlation to the concept much of the visual is driven by the sound, and by using spectral analysis the sound is driven by the video, maintaining the idea of conversation and communication.

The number 4 in numerology is said to symbolize stability, order and is representative of the earth and mankind, whilst the number 2 is said to bring union and peace between entities and to end separation.
