A video about early 1900s Manchester. All #AI, it's like a fever dream. The absurd narration ("If Manchester sneezes, the global textile market catches a cold") slips between various accents. Most of the visuals are insane: impossible equipment, vanishing objects,.

the eight ai pictures are trash

  Suffragettes holding a sign 'Votes for Wor Wren'
  Random industrial chimney attached to residential home
  Double-decker bus / horse & carriage mashup
  Barman/punters on wrong side of the bar
  'Votes for Wommen'
  Trams with fireworks shooting from their sides
  Impossible typing machine
  A smoking pen. People write backwards gibberish
