Kowamoe was moved 055: Being overwhelmed by vastness and silence at the same time
Since Kowamoe-san has been enjoying
Yoro's past note articles with me,
I have decided to gradually upload those moments as articles.
If you'd like, I hope you can also enjoy these moments leisurely along with Kowamoe-san. With that thought in mind, I am compiling them into a series.
I hope you enjoy it.
MetaBallStudios, thank you very much.
A Spanish company, set in New York.
Viewing on a large screen is recommended.
This is a CG video that everyone I've watched it with has been captivated by.
11 minutes.
I have watched many amazing videos, but the sense of presence in this one is still number one.
MetaBallStudios' footage makes you experience the moment an 'abnormal scale' invades an everyday city as if you were standing there yourself. This time, I had an AI verify the reason for this.
I had an AI analyze it below, and I felt that the content itself was as compelling as the video.
This video is not just a collection of huge objects lined up. It is an experience where vision, sound, air, sense of distance, fear, and fascinationform layers and slowly sink deep into your consciousness.
It is not about 'seeing' the vastness, but rather being made to stand within the vastness. I will carefully unravel that structure one by one.
◆ 1. A composition that quietly makes you cross the 'boundary line' where perception collapses
The video begins with a small boat. It is still understandable. It is still comparable. However, as the scale increases, the moment arrives when the brain lets go of the concept of 'size'.
This is not a gradual expansion, but a staged rupture.
The realm of understanding
The realm where understanding wavers
The realm where understanding vanishes
The video accurately follows these three stages. When you enter the realm of the incomprehensible, you begin to perceive the world not through 'comparison' but through 'pressure'.
At that moment, fear and fascination arise simultaneously. When these two occur at the same time, the heart is deeply shaken.
◆ 2. The first-person perspective sinks the vastness to the 'depths of the body'
The viewpoint is at ground level. This is decisive.
The angle of looking up
The flow of the wind
The swaying of trees
The falling of shadows
The reflection on the ground
These do not present the existence of a giant object as 'visual information,' but rather sink it in as a physical reaction.
Vastness is not understood through numbers, but deep within the body.
The imagination of 'what if this really passed overhead' remains not as a fantasy, but as the 'lingering scent of an experience.'
The footage has a structure that invades in the order of vision → body → consciousness. It has a structure that invades in that order.
◆ 3. A composition where an 'abnormal scale' invades an ordinary city
The setting is an ordinary city found anywhere. It is not a special sci-fi city.
Street stalls
Trees
Buildings
Power lines
The texture of the ground
Into these 'vessels of daily life,' an abnormally giant object slides in.
This layering of 'daily life × abnormality' shakes the viewer's sense of reality.
In outer space, you can keep your distance. However, when a giant object passes over a familiar city, the boundary between reality and the footage thins.
Even though you know it is 'impossible,' a feeling that it 'could be possible' arises. A powerful charm is born in this middle ground.
◆ 4. Music carves the 'hierarchy' of vastness into consciousness
Music is not just accompaniment. It is a device for carving the hierarchy of vastness into your consciousness.
Small scale has a human sense of distance
Medium scale has solemnity
Giant objects have a resonance like a prayer
Beyond that, there is a sound pressure that transcends words
When the 'speed' of sight and sound align, consciousness is drawn in a single direction.
You do not 'understand' the immensity; you are 'made to submit' to it.
◆ 5. Beyond 'Comparison' to 'Experience'—Imagery that Rewrites Consciousness
While MetaBallStudios' videos are primarily intended for 'comparison,' this work goes beyond that, stepping into the realm of 'making you understand immensity as an experience'.
After watching, you realize that your internal standards for words like 'giant,' 'spaceship,' and 'scale' have changed.
This is not imagery that provides information, but imagery that deforms consciousness.
◆ 6. Deep Resonance with Yoro-san's Worldview
The structure of this video matches the themes Yoro-san deals with to a surprising degree.
Shape: The form, shadow, and silhouette of giant objects
Speed: Passing speed, wind, and the movement of shadows
Consciousness: The simultaneous ignition of fear and fascination
Space-time: The moment when the abnormal intrudes upon the everyday
This is exactly 'the point where consciousness and space-time intersect' that Yoro-san speaks of.
That is why this video is not just 'one of my favorite videos,' but has soared to the position of 'the best, setting everything else aside'.
