Everyone sees what he knows

"Time into time" is a 3 minutes experimental movie on the concept of Time.
According to Bruno Munari, to communicate visually have to be in contact with the stereotypes of people: if you shoot a subject movement with the camera you have to be sure about the time received by the viewers. 
This movie captured 3000 frames per second, which means that the scenes are very slow, but Munari has made the image immediately recognizable shooting an action that everyone knows must be done in a second of time, so every viewer recognizes the same velocity.

Escher: from 2D to 3D

The main characteristic of the following representations is the passage from the plane to the space and vice versa. On the one hand, the members of the collectivity come to life in the spatiality, on the other hand, free individuals get lost into the collectivity. The sequence should be interpreted as a unique individual in a dynamic process.
