Nothing 03 (Sænd) is an observational docufiction that retraces the outcome of aksanti 33 (part 3), a failed attempt to escape the torments of the West through the spatiotemporal portal ISHARA. This new promising technology provides safe travel through the center of the Earth instead of operating via the disintegration and reintegration of the travellers’ constitution – a method that has unfortunately led to unsatisfactory and regrettable outcomes. Another remarkable feature of this new technology is the dematerialization of baggage into sound waves carried by the traveller, which is made available in this video in remembrance of the departure of Subject #1. ISHARA is an ambitious project in its testing phase. The volunteers run the risk of deviations in the engineer’s calculations, but their contribution is invaluable for the future of humanity in the damaged Northern Hemisphere. This video is based on the latest information received from Subject #1.
