Imagination Becomes Reality

The External World by David O'Reilly
 

This 20 min short film, a beautiful and crazy animation, really typifies what I was trying to express last class about the simulacra and how with media, and the internet in particular, imagination becomes reality. 'The External World,' expresses it a much more artistic and poetic manner. Below is the trailer.
