The Shining: Six Scenes

experimentNo. 0051categoryFilm & mediarecordingpendingdataCC BY 4.0

The fly and supporting flies move through six silent Overlook scenes, from a tricycle ride through the patterned corridor to the Gold Room bar.

Workstation still from The Shining: Six Scenes

Recording pending publication. Follow along for the release.

Setup

  • Six scenes over 214 seconds: the Big Wheel corridor, the twins, the bathroom door, the red elevators, the snowy hedge maze and the Gold Room.
  • Twin flies in blue dresses; eight axe blows and a breakaway door; an elevator flood that coats the subject; a maze with false turns, footprints and an exit.
  • A Scene selector jumps to any of the six scenes; speed, loop and timeline controls are shared with the other timeline-based activities.

Measurement

  • Retinal-only neural windows during playback, with fixed weights.
  • The subject's own clothing and coating are excluded from retinal capture, matching the shared fly body exclusion; other flies remain visible.
  • All movement follows a pre-programmed, seekable timeline.

Limitations

  • Sets and timing are approximations, not frame-accurate replicas. No film footage, soundtrack or dialogue is included.
  • The red flood is a programmed wave, splash and coating effect, not a fluid simulation or an injury model.
