00:08

If you derive "dementia" as the meaning of this, you're an idiot, sorry.

Dementia, a sickness that consists of the mind decaying and slowly losing realization of memory and the world itself until its nothing.

This short starts sparse, and starts slowly building itself into a wild, jazzy, abstract collage of wonderful sense expansion. It truly is the most extreme display of boredom and wandering thoughts expanding into a mess of creativity. no degradation to be seen so far.

The score is wonderful, eccentric loops building until it explodes into an avalanche of free playing. it captures the monotony blooming into chaos perfectly.

My only ... complaint is that the artsy fartsy conclusion isn't longer. it's fantastic, gorgeous shapes and colours splatter all over the place and make a cacophony of saturation not unlike a stained glass portrait completely rearranging itself at will.

so yeah, if you get Dementia out of this, we get it, you listened to that vapid Caretaker album and think you're some scientist.

It starts how it ends, a man taking a sip of their drink.
At first, I thought it was just gonna repeat over and over again. But the animation slowly changed with every second that passed. This movie was tagged with dementia and there couldn't be a better word than that. It feels like life and death, and how your world changes with dementia. The animation is smooth but in your face, and I'm a sucker for pencil animation so I enjoyed that. The sound could be better it seemed quiet for most of it.
But if you have a few minutes of free time, go ... ahead and watch it.

The best way I can describe 00:08 is that it feels like an acid trip. It's oddly hypnotic in a way. It has some nice art, too. It doesn't really have a story, there really are no characters except for the man drinking coffee. Overall, if you have some free time on your hands and want to see a confusing animation for a time killer, give it a watch just for the sake of watching it. Maybe you could get a chuckle out of it, too. Or if you just want to waste time, you could watch it. It literally doesn't matter what circumstances drive ... you to watch this, it's literally just 5 minutes of a dude drinking coffee turned wacky.
