A Rock that Learned the Poetry of Jung Jiyong, 2010, A Rock That Was Taught It Was a Bird, 2010
Two films that documented lessons given to inanimate objects. In A Rock that Learned the Poetry of Jung Jiyong, a number of instructors took turns to explain to a rock the poetry of Jung Jiyong, a Korean modernist poet. In the second film, avian behaviours, such as flying and perching on a tree branch, were explained to a chunk of granite.
