"Quantum Travel" is a mood piece, a glimpse into a mysterious ride through parallel worlds. It is inspired by Santigold's song "God from the machine". The accelerated whisper is a voice recorded reciting a poem by Philip Lamantia: "the feast of our hearts on fire, the nerves supplying spice, blood cursing a glow of insects, our eyes the dahlias of torrential ignition." The video combines cut-out animation, live footage, photos and graphics from the book "The Tao of Physics"; diagrams of energy patterns and interacting particles. "Quantum Travel" was part of the monthly event "Minute moments" at Moment Factory.

"Suspended Time" visits Trimurti, the three-headed hindu god. Between Brahma and Siva is Visnu, the preserver, as between past and future is the present. Visnu is the one outside of time – it is transcendence and eternity; the continuum, the experience of the present that we call "now".
