A camera installed above the monitor zooms in on the recognised face with the sound effect “Kaa!” with a sound effect, the device zooms in and forces the promise on the experiencer. The forcing mechanism is an attention-grabbing look by someone. At the same time, the zoom-in in cinematography is a message to the viewer to “pay attention”, thus forcing the attention of others present in the scene as well. The sudden manifestation of self and otherness unconditionally affirms the life of the experiencer.
