"Atom," the basic component of matter, in Greek means something that cannot be cut or divided. The visual and musical story shown in dynamic images of stop-motion animation, provokes the viewer to ponder the themes of transhumanism, the role of man in the system and his insatiability. The whole is complemented by atonal melodies of an analog synthesizer, the sound of which has been enhanced with digital effects. Inspiration during the making of this film came from the words of Vernor Vinge, quoting, "Soon we will create intelligences greater than our own. When this happens, human history will have reached a singularity, an intellectual transition point as impenetrable as curved space-time at the center of a black hole, and the world will no longer be comprehensible to us." (Vinge 1993). The author of the film does not propose the only correct interpretation, he encourages the viewer to make it on the basis of his life experience and sensory perception.
