Thanks! I really enjoyed this one. I love the animation style and I found it thought provoking.
And I see a lot of people are asking what it all means. I’m not the filmmaker, but I’ll share what I think it means. Basically, I see this as a gray goo world. (Wikipedia has a good article explaining what the term means) Basically, I see this as portraying a world where nanotechnology has completely consumed the Earth’s biosphere, including human beings. There are facsimiles to humans that are maintained by the nanotechnology but they are completely inorganic and are not biological.
Please note there is a plot summary in the video’s description, but it looks like it was written by a non native English speaker so it’s not very helpful. On the other hand, I like my interpretation and I’m sticking with it.

I'm sure someone worked very hard on this video. Still, I cant see how this can be a robot's realization of the true nature of their reality. If Robots have any thought processes at all( they don't) how does a human think they can interpret them for other humans. A good story teller compels the audience to suspend disbelief. For me, this story teller does not have that ability. Sorry.

This is art, disguised as a story. Does it matter that the scene jumps are unclear, or appear to lack purpose No - it is ART. To be enjoyed, as the visual and conceptual motion it expounds. And I did enjoy this, a lot. I can't say exactly WHY, but I did.

Well that's 5 minutes and 3 seconds I wont get back. Sorry, it just didn't keep my interest. Was intensely boring. I appreciate the time and effort that went into it though, and I hope others find enjoyment out of it. Good luck.

I’m not 100% sure what to think. I enjoyed the animationthat’s it. But the story is random and the beginning, middle and the end are not tied together. That’s OK. I watched it and enjoyed the animation.

The cracked animation style was refreshing & interesting, but there was just no story. This was just a critter wandering around doing random things. There was no story to this.

When symbolism is taken to such an extreme, it no longer carries any meaning except to the originator - a good recipe for self expression, not so much for general consumption.

I kept on feeling like I was inside a microcosm serving as a function for something much larger and more important. POSITIVE VIBES TO ALL FROM SOUTHWEST GA
