Minimal Sway While Starting My Way Up

As an intelligent elevator discovers the world, we get to know the invisible links between extreme heights – the mega-tall tower, a speculative object and symbol for social, cultural and economical domination; and extreme depths – the deep mine, a place of natural wealth extraction and colonial exploitation. As doubts, fears and desires melt in the consciousness of the elevator, existence becomes a battle to justify itself.
