The idea of change and metamorphosis is structurally inherent to Imagine si ceci since the movie is generated algorithmically and thus different every time you watch it.
Imagine si ceci combines photographic material shot by the author in Kenya and Belgium together with sound samples gathered on the fly from the internet. Using special algorithms, effects and transitions a short motion picture is created.
