Time is always an interesting topic. The perception of time changes. When you engage, such as walking in a busy city, or typing on a keyboard, it passes fast; when you wander, it becomes endless. Our brains are fascinating, they control what we see and how we feel. This video shows various scenes are happening at the same time between cities and natures. Time flows from day till night. A ‘J’ cut at the beginning, the video starts from darkness to a digital clock and a sundial, representing there will be a comparation. Clock sounds like a trailer to lead audiences to an experience of time. All scenes are divided into city and nature; however, they share commonalities. For example, shapes, colours, and moods. It shows a strong relationship between the two worlds, things are happening at the same time, but they provide different feelings of the time. When the sun goes down, the day ends, it comes back to darkness and only remains sounds of nature. This video displays a day routine.
