Poetry in Motion: Symbolism in Video Art


I really like this video. It's like poetry in motion.
The little man... represented by the organic wishbone (adam's rib comes to mind as a biblical allusion) drives the massive corporate machine.

So does the machine drive the man... or does man drive the machine?

Or has the machine man strapped himself to support the man that the man must work hard to guide?

So many thoughts about this video pop up... maybe I'm overanalyzing.

It looks like it means to show us that we can make a wishbone walk like it has been on a horse for 2 weeks.
