The video for Second Witness is a collaboration between TJ Hertz (Objekt), Rachel Buehlmann (a Swiss visual artist operating within sound, sociology and photography) and Joe Dilworth (a British photographer), with help from Nine Yamamoto-Masson (a French-Japanese artist, curator and researcher in Media Studies / Critical Theory). It expands upon one the concepts behind the album – the idea of seeing a complex scene from every angle at once – as it explores the theme of vision and the limitations of sight, probing the desire to escape one's own restricted point of view. The theme is reflected in both medium and motifs: shot entirely on film, the images purposefully tread the boundary between figurative and abstract. Much of the material was shot using a novel 360-degree pinhole camera array developed by Buehlmann in 2012, which instantaneously exposes 180 images on 5 metres of 35mm film. Animated in sequence, the resulting footage gives the impression of encircling a scene frozen at one moment in time, the camera eye offering another way of seeing as it surveys inexplicable formations suspended in mid-air. This panoptic camera technique draws upon the "frenzy of the visible" and aesthetically echoes forensic and early medical photography. The material shot with this technique is intercut with Super 8mm footage of related scenes in movement. One scene in the video was also refined into the Flatland cover photograph, taken by Joe Dilworth.
