Taking a cue from João Maria Gusmão and Pedro Paiva's short films and their self-described interest in "recreational metaphysics" in this video a character is caught, via a surveillance camera, attempting to animate a carton of eggs. While this feat might(?) remain impossible at the site of the event, the camera tells a different story. In this fictional realm, objects are transformed into subjects via the right touch, spin, gravity, and weight.
