In his video The fourth dimension Rybczynski uses a rolling shutter effect, similar to slit-scan photography, to alter our perception of time and space. In the video objects are warped and twisted, often around the actors, in a way not perceivable in the world we perceive. The story plays on the theme of entwinement, relationships and narrative, opening and closing with a book twisting, pages open. The “fourth dimension” is obviously time, which is manipulated in a way we can easily see – space, the video shows how time looks, or at least one way time can be looked at.
