The story

Dag Kaszlikowski, a physicist and filmmaker, created a short, sensuous essay on perception. It focuses on the scientific idea of the so-called Boltzmann brain, which posits that a human can only be a fleeting fluctuation of particles, an illusion emerging from the chaos of the dying universe. In his picture, this Polish artist working in Singapore blurs the boundaries between what seems certain and what is labile. Reality cannot be captured.
