Experiencing Interruptions?

The city that we can('t) see

The animation "The city we can('t) see" is divided into 3 themes: "The city that we see" - knowledge, what we already know; "The city that we can't see" - suggested by illusion, information which we seem to know,
but we don't, and "The city we can('t) see" - the neutral space between the first two ones. A temporary space where these first two themes meet. "The city we can('t) see" is a temporary link between knowledge and illusions, errors. The mind is imprinted daily with various visual and auditory stimuli of information,
which are filtered, received both consciously and unconsciously. The information that enters unconsciously is a focus in this study because it leads to unknown processes that filter information, creating a palimpsest seethrough appearance, overlapping erroneous information added to our knowledge. This creates a collage of ideas which makes the temporary base of an erroneous construction. These unstable constructions appear at the borders of the two described types of knowledge, described above, and in the process of identifying them, if we do, they are immediately corrected. These erroneous constructions appear at the borders of "The city that we can('t) see", as reasoning comes kicking in, destroying these systematic errors, meaning these metaphoric buildings come crumbling down. The short animation "The city we can('t) see" suggests the course of thoughts and persuasion, visually passing through the path of conscious mechanisms of information filtering.
