Trains, cars, aircraft, ships, people. Everything revolves endlessly around itself. But shift and tilt lenses, pseudo-macros, pseudo miniature worlds, definition levels and time lapse do nothing but making a fairy tale out of us, an illusion of cheerfulness. Our environment as a playground in which we move to and fro like miniature figures and believe not that they are us, but our toys.
