Cool concepts, but in the longer term younger people have shown tendencies to be more skeptical and less influenced by group identity and broad labels (communist, capitalist, socialist, etc. With the internet and broad social media, they can associate with groups that share their priorities, not conform to the priorities of a limited number of groups - they can readily research individual issues without grouping under a broad label. The internet can provide ready access to information and misinformation - what a person migrates to is a personal choice.

A commentor down below said they felt like they'd just watched an ad. I said, In a way, it is. It's an ad of the future--the kind of future we could make through using the tools that the scammers use, but for the good of the planet, for the good of the small villages and businesses that the massive corporations too often exploit. How's about THAT for a new paradigm : -D How cool would THAT be

It's about that time when they robbed our country you people know who they were or are those filthy full of shit they don't deserve what they have right now but people will see how they will fall deep in darkness. There won't be any forgiveness for them I think they can understand that I m targeting them. If you can understand then wait for perfect timing.

So this whole thing was trying to paint faking attention and lying about quality as a noble business practice that helps culture flourish. through coordinated lying and online deception in the name of promoting hindi crafts!
Seems like self-righteous garbage masquerading as deep profound meaning, if you ask me.

This was good! It went some places I didn't expect but that was awesome. Usually we think of shadow corporations manipulating public opinion to be EVIL things. Motivated only by money. In this, the media manipulation is for a higher standard of living for those that have been taken advantage of. I loved that!

Thia is why i do not put myself in groups on social media, you think you are apart because you are a fan or follower of the person, but some people become so obsessed, that they began to think they are really apart of a important group, it's almost cult like, i only follow one GOD

I love the 3D fractal animation in this video! I don't get how it relates to the story though. Is it meant to be all that dye coming out of the rivers, unpolluting them
Great message here. & I like that you featured clips from Gangnam Style & a Teens React video by The Fine Brothers.

It's true what they're saying about the damage the dyeing industry does, but it also employs a multitude of people who can't afford to lose their jobs, plus those 'undyed' fabrics also pollute because of the need for them to be bleached before being woven!

The internet doesnt make us more informed. It reinforces our own narrow views. We are only shown what we want to see. Search engines target our preferences and our walls are full of our likeminded friends. Its the ultimate conflation of self and society.

Interesting insight. I just wonder if there are any statistics to back this up, or is it all just Sci-Fi Either way, social media definitely influences the masses, and one video going viral can make someone rich overnight. Keep up the good work.

This short was more like a documentary. It opened my eyes to the truth behind the trends, so-called challenges, and so-called culture. This one had me glued to the screen.

It strikes me as unbearbly naive to both recognize the manipulative power of social media, but also thing think you can somehow control it for your own ends for good.

Wow. Just wow. That wasn't a short sci-fi film, it was a comprehensive comment on society across the world today. One of the very best I've seen on Dust.

I would give it a 10 out of 10 but that CG tie-dye blob stuff kept popping up and I found it distracting from the message. I just don't see how it's relevant.

I like the content and idea behind this video, but isn't this set in modern day I thought Dust was about science fiction, or plausible near futures.

A short film about the damage caused by the most trivial activity on earth: fashion trends. There's a great irony in all of this.
