The sound and visuals of objects projected onto light were so terrifying I felt a real sense of dread like something was coming after me. Multiple images flashing at once completely overwhelming me.
And then we reach the nude torso in the end it moves slowly. And that slowness compared to the speed at which images were shown and played gave a sense of calm after the chase the only time you feel truly comfortable.
Through all interpretations the most absurd but oddly true is the return from man made objects of tools like fabric nails and clocks is to the nudity of a flesh. Human beings and possibly through the eyes of sexuality our biological need and our only REASON for existing scientifically of course.
