Created by artist Jonathan Brainin, the Pendulum Video was shown as part of [an exhibit](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spencer-finch) in the Currents New Media Festival that took place in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

Starring two [swinging pendulum televisions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moving-furniture), this short film demonstrates what happens when an artist's imagination is realized as video and is shared with the public. Simply genius in concept, the video showcases movement and reflection on a continuous plane that creates visuals that resonate as ridiculously captivating and [mesmerizing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yurameki).

Anyone who is looking for something to star at that is both though-provoking and mindlessly monotonous at the same time will most definitely get a kick out of watching the strange and hypnotizing Pendulum Video by Jonathan Brainin.
