Alternative title:
ジーニアス・パーティ (Japanese)
Objectionable content: None
Plot Summary: A barren desert filled with deep red and orange. A bird-like creature runs across the terrain in an awkward, primitive way. It looks hungry. Tribal/techno beats grow in intensity, like watching the sun about to rise on a 50c degree day. The bird-like creature stops, spots an egg in the ground smiling back at it. With its wooden beak it cracks in and pulls out the glowing goodness, scoffing it down. The egg, all too happy to share, watches in amazement as the creature's wings shoot flames, propelling it violently like a rocket towards the sky. Another egg takes notice, seeing the potential. It sacrifices itself, cracking its shell to expose its inner heart, and then re-eats it. A Violent Eruption results. Electricity generates between thousands of eggs, demonstrating how all is connected.
