I came across a proverb or quote of somekind about there being two things that cause a lot of the world's problems. I couldn't find who originally wrote it or said it but it rang true for me the more I thought about it. Especially as we watch even more terrible events unfolding around the world, and in particular in the Middle East. From there I searched up other quotes that felt relevant to me for similar reasons, these formed a thread that gave me reason to make several short single-shot films using Ai video. March 2026.
