CLASSIFIED-ISH OPERATIONAL BRIEFING / M-011
YOUR ORDINARY WORLD.
AN EXTRAORDINARY EXCUSE TO NOTICE.
A small object can project a giant silhouette under the right lamp. The mismatch between its true size and its shadow can make an unremarkable thing seem monumental.
02 SAMPLE CASE
AN EXAMPLE REPORT.
Example report: “A tiny key cast the silhouette of an entire mythical fortress on my wall.”
ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLE · NOT A COMMUNITY SUBMISSION03 THE NOT-SO-SECRET EXPLANATION
WHY THIS IS FUN.
Relative distance and light angle make shadow scale flexible. It is physics having a little theatrical moment.
04 SAFETY DIRECTIVE
KEEP IT HARMLESS.
Use normal indoor or outdoor lighting. Don't stare into powerful lights, touch electrical wiring or leave the house to locate a stronger source.
