To me, this movie expands on the boundaries between the user and the interface, and sort of strengthens that bond but also waves at the current reality of it. Since, you're able to 'customize' yourself, but you're hopping between two worlds which confuses reality and fake.
This is a point where the user becomes the interface
This headset they're wearing becomes the connection between the "fake world" and the "real world"

A sketch of our idea
Looking at this block, we weren't sure how to make it more significant than it actually was.
We ended up choosing an idea where it could become two things; a dog toy and phone holder.
The inside would be hollowed out and then made into a case, where you could put your phone inside to follow focus on your dog and play with them; the wooden case would unlock after the dog's bite significantly weakens, showing that they're tired.
