Revision as of 10:53, 18 July 2006
Revelation is the first installment of the story of Kalkin. It shows the slow awakening of the artificial life, and its childish, undeveloped tries to get into contact with Ping - one of the main characters. Kalkin uses Ping's artificial eyes as a way to see, and therefore has a close connection to her already. She is not previously aware of the presence.

Act 0 - Title and Establishing Scene
We are opening the movie with a flight from way above into the divided city of Berlin (in a map/3D stlye) in the year 2028. One half is very green while the other is white and only has sparse green spots here and there. All the surrounding land is absolutely green with white spots resembling corporate greenhouses here and there (that are huge). We then see the "white" side - its huge clean structures blink up and the text "Bayeonia" comes into view. Scenes of futuristic surveillence cameras/robots, Clean white glassy architecture and people in corporate dress working like robots show up (maybe intercut with robots). We cut back to the top view of the city this time the "east" side blinks.
Visions of the divided city in an artistic poster performance style showing various aspects of the Bayeonia (survellience and robot like workers etc.) and a little bit of B. and a map of the city and the wall.
Act 1 - Protagonist Introduction
Zooming out of poster performance and showing Ping being distracted by a beautiful butterfly. she watches it for a couple of seconds and shortly later we see her incorporating it into the poster piece.
Act 2
Packs up her stuff. Walks through the city, perhaps meeting someone on the way. Makes a minor installation on the way with just the butterfly (not important) and then finds a good spot to put her final piece up. When watching the installed piece there is a brief moment where the signal cuts into a stream of binary numbers - 'LIFE' in binary code.
Then she rewinds to check if it was a mistake she made. But there is nothing but the original piece of visual showing. She has done her job for the day and rolls an old-school spliff and climbs a building to chill over the city (watch a sunset perhaps?) after wandering around a bit.
Act 3
Pings point of view
From the viewpoint of the roof top she sees Az and other runners running past in the distance. Then focuses on Az running in the street below and slamming into a door (slapsticky). After a few attempts to run through the door he sees her laughing on the roof briefly. Feeling caught redhanded - even though she is innocent of manipulating the door - she grabs her stuff (perhaps dropping something to give him a lead).
Az - pissed off - takes a different route.
Ping runs off laughing ('oh it was funny'), running down the stairs into an alleyway and turning around to check that he is not following her. Then she goes to Big Fish's greenhouse and tending his plants. Perhaps eats something picked from the plants - tomato. She shows the professor the loop of Azrael running into the door - they both laugh. She makes a new loop of it and on the way home sprays it onto several walls (at least three). Caption next to the loop "Wonders of modern technology" or similar.
She goes into her apartment. Changes the walls (screens) to a relaxed midnight ocean setting and goes to sleep.
Act 4
Pings point of view
She gets woken up by a knock on the door and kind of sleepwalks over to the door, opens it. Az pushes in - they have a fight. Somehow her eyes get covered (by t-shirt beeing pulled) and she freaks out and pulls out a small spray can and sprays it into his face. He immediately falls asleep.
Black out
He wakes up and she is looking at him.
They sit down and converse. Table Converstation Sequence with scripted words on the wall out mouth etc pp.
- Az: "I lost because of you!"
- Ping: "Why me?"
- Az: "You were fucking around with those doors!"
Az gives Ping the chip he pulled from her installation and gives it to Ping. She plugs it into her wall and it shows Az running into the door.
- AZ: "Who if not you?"
The moment she shrugs somethings happens - A binary code rifts through the loop - "IT WAS ME!!!!" (un-readable)
They both look really puzzled.
She has a brainwave and looks through her recording database and finds the place where she recorded the installation from the beginning of the film (butterfly loop) with the code appearing shortly.
Ping pulls out her floating nano-screen and puts in the binary code that is then translated into ASCII characters that spell out "LIFE" and "IT WAS ME!!!!". They look puzzled.
Az proposes to see Big Fish to find out who is sending the messages.

Az nods.

Act 5
Pings Point of View
They arrive at Big Fish Laboratory. He looks shocked and surprised to see them together and asks them in. Ping shows him the loops she recorded with the binary code in them. She gives him the chips. They wait for Big Fish to check on the chips. The power cuts out. Big Fish turns on some strange-looking floating nano-lights. Big Fish fiddles with something. The power comes back on. Chips are fried because of the power cut. They look disappointed. Then they decide to to the sliding door to check it.

The professor nods in amazement. He takes the chips from Ping and inspects them closely.
