I have watched this video recently called “The way things go” by an unnamed YouTube user. This video shows a series of objects being moved and changing, as a consequence of another force or object acting upon them.
This video mainly reminded me of the videos of complicated contraptions, used for the purpose of trapping a creature or performing a task. The many items used to make this film is fascinating, especially when they used every day, ordinary items plus a few chemicals and special effects to add to the movement. This emphasizes the cause and effect plus the movement of the items and the transition from one action to the next.
Other than the sounds of the objects and how they move, there is no additional sounds in the film. It just observes the objects used moving and the motions and reactions. All the way to the end, there’s nothing but this observation, so the whole film is a contraption with no real purpose, however uses a lot of placements to keep the items going.
This film mainly paid attention to the physics and movements of random objects, and seems just to be made for the purpose of observation, which is what it did show to the viewers.
