MOTION STUDIES
an ongoing series of experiments

The Motion Studies films are an ongoing series of experiments that document various
forms of motion and investigate the scientific principles behind them.

Inertia is a (very) short film charting the absolute distance, which a man can run
at full charge while wearing a complete suit of armor.

Motion Studies #3: Gravity


Gravity was shot on a quiet fall afternoon and provides empirical evidence
of the instantaneous propagation of gravity and our world's drag on foreign
bodies. Set against the tragic transmissions of Soviet cosmonauts, it's a short
study of humanity's persistent self-sacrifice for the sake of scientific progress.
