Simple picture. Components: a fluorescent lamp, pieces: 1. Multiplication of object and sounds. Fluorescent lamps are formed into an image, in subsequent stages of the film they are reproduced exponentially. Besides typical mathematical associations, geometric progression is also associated with human impact on the surrounding environment and technology, which it creates (eg systems 32 or 64 bit, etc.). Technological progress, of which we are eye-witnesses, is growing very rapidly. This may raise the question: are we able to keep up with every novelty? Image gradually becomes more and more chaotic, the lights flash faster and faster, which makes the initial order begin to emerge pictures, that are causing in us feeling of anxiety. Similar feelings may cause (and certainly should cause) science progress and human pressure on the surrounding area, especially on the environment.
