Festival - Passing Through Indiana

"I found it possible to visually produce my friends Alan's last moments using nothing but his vivus data from 2024. I think it's beautiful, being able to hear his voice again. Technology has come so far and it's a privilege being able to show such a spectacle to the world. Alan was an aspiring filmmaker, much like myself. I wish he was able to see what the future of filmmaking is like."
- Collin Nichols, during post-showing interview

I think the fact that it’s blurry to the point where you can’t see anything clearly, but not too blurry so that you can still sort of tell what’s going on it absolutely genius and makes this all the more scary

[@Nyck-Dee]

"everything was perfect a few months ago" I feel like that felt almost personal now, considering everything that happened. EDIT: I'm shocked at how many replies this has gotten-

[@CorelexVoidOwl]

I’m not gonna be surprised if this new series is inspired by Kister’s emotions and turmoil about what happened to him last month. This is quite an interesting and creative way for him to explore his emotions.

How many psychology classes have you taken? I’m about to get my Bachelor’s in psych and it’s very interesting to see how many elements you use that have been scientifically PROVEN to cause discomfort in humans. The timbre of voice, the amount of light in certain frames, uncomfortable repetition, silence, and OBVIOUSLY uncanny valley. Not only is your work amazing, it could be used by scientists to further research!

[@salomesmith184]

alex kirster give her the chance dawg

[@Hank..]

Creeped me out a lot. It feels like I'm watching the last moments of someone who's brain is starting to flicker off as they die from their perspective. It's very unsettling. Also I think, from a technical perspective, your work is really well-made. You're doing a great job with these videos!

[@GroveStreetMan]

For me, your videos are not fear (Almost). In some of them I find solitude, tranquility, some kind of nostalgia and just a pleasant feeling

[@licorishbubbles0o]

This feels like a depiction of someone’s last moments alive, idk. Like the voice is someone talking to the person who is slowly dying.

[@theextremeanimator4721]

I think this short, while a visualization of Alan's thoughts before, during, and _after_ his (cutter to the heart)...is just that, *on the surface.* Through Alan's girlfriend, Alex expresses a taste of how much in despair he was during his tumultuous period of drama thanks to BeeciaratiVA's actions on Twitter. Just like Alan, he may have felt his world crumble around him. As if everything that makes life the wonderful experience that it should be...meant nothing now that (we, the) people hated him. The cheering at the end *may* have been part of the last things that Alan thought as he bled out...that the world wasn't just better off without him. It would be happy. Because after all...the world is better off with one less monster to be worried about. No matter how much libel it takes to find one.

[@gidso6354]

Wow, this is something big. I really do feel this is a good interpretation of this video. Though I do believe that some of whatever this video was before the drama was different, and Alex changed it to fit his current mindset. After all, he did write that he was working on this alongside Vol. 5, so there’s always that. I really do think your theory holds water, especially the last bit.

This is about DB I think it is because it sounds like he’s bringing up things from the “drama” how he felt so comfortable with her how he loved her and how when she left him and tried taking everything from him he’d cry too himself so much that now he had no more tears to shed and how he’s envious of people with normal stable relationships and now that he doesn’t have the one he loves the one who gave him the warmth of love he feels cold and empty without it and how he longs for the good days where a couple months ago they were happy and loving each other But hey it’s just a thought I could be wrong

Alex, hello! It’s your subscriber from Russia.

On their arts we see yours characters and your horror atmosphere, but they call it their own universe. People, Alex, is it ok??? As for me it’s a clearest plagiate… i need an answers and opinions!
