through a small monocular, various everyday images were filmed using a smartphone. The results are similar to the magnification of a microscope for close objects, but instead the sky is seen here. Ambient sounds were recorded simultaneously, which do not always correspond with the imagery. The split-screen video and a multi-layered background noise make it difficult for the viewer to keep the viewing angle constant, creating a subtle feeling of disorientation.
