'Forecast' is a 3d redered video in which we fly through floating photographs depicting a blue sky with clouds. The film takes as a starting point segments of Bertrand Russell's book "ABC of Relativity", specifically a chapter where Russell explicates differences between actuality and perception. Dealing with themes of relativity theory and concepts of space time, this video relates our understanding of reality with our experiences of different media. The discrete layers of representation are suggestive of an unstable environment. The reading of Bertrand Russell's text turns into music halfway through the video, to let us experience a more associative impact of the words.
