The video may be fake. Jeremijenko, the "artist", withholds it to avoid detailed examination.

I really was not clear, sorry. Nathalie Jeremijenko was not the artist who had the video. She hosted a seminar where a sequence of artists gave talks. One of these artists presented that video at the seminar.

I really don't see how it could have been a hoax. Computer art and animation was my thing at the time, and I'm pretty sure I would have noticed a fake. 20 years ago, computer animation was pretty good, but it was a rare few who could make truly realistic renders and composit them into recorded video. Not that guy, for sure.
