I'd love to see a video that takes this concept, but walks around with it. Literally
Start by getting out of a car on the side of the street or in a parking lot, and when the camera gets out of the car, all the "car areas" drop away, leaving only the paths you're "allowed" to take. Tiny sections right against the parking spaces, zebra crossings, sidewalks, all normal (or in this style).
Camera goes about a normal day, and as they're looking around, all the car designated areas are just voids.
Bonus points if areas you're technically not supposed to walk are boxed off in like a video game style DO NOT ENTER wall. For instance, there are sections of my city with NO sidewalks, up against private residences. So your options are walk over people's yards or in the street. In this scenario, it's a void against a wall. Good luck.
I'm just thinking about walking to get to downtown, and there's no way I could do it without being somewhere I'm "not allowed". And imagining the massive voids everywhere is a bit depressing. Not that roads and parking lot deserts are any less depressing... I need to go walk in the woods for a bit...
Something like this? https://vm.tiktok.com/ZGJKWuwan/
