Plots(1)

FilmNUMBER experiments in black and white with the viewer’s sensory perception, exploring which shapes and transformations the eye is capable of identifying in images seen for just a fraction of a second. The film thus delves into the space between the screen and the viewer’s retina in order to use the sense of imperceptibility and play with the possibilities of depicting a googolplex, a number so large that writing it out in numbers would take up more room than the entire universe.
