The Centrifuge Brain Project is a German short mockumentary fantasy film written and directed by Till Nowak. The film uses incredibly bizarre computer-generated imagery to create seven fictional amusement park rides used in a faux documentary film about the construction of physics-defying rides intended for use in research efforts to improve human cognitive function. Nowak was inspired to create the project when visiting an amusement park in 2008 and this video is basically the psychology equivalent of This is Spinal Tap.
