“You just don’t know what’s under the surface, be it the land, the sea, our skin. You could be whistling away, projecting contentedness when really there’s a swirling twisted mess underneath. Looking up, there’s the knowable universe but unless you get into astrology, you’ll find the stars don’t owe us anything and you’re left less assured than when we thought gods threw down lightning bolts." - Andrew Bird. A short film to promote the release of Bird's new album.

"It’s not just society that is getting atomized but the self that is being broken apart and scattered"
