What is a central idea in the story and how was it shown by three different visual artists?

The central idea in the story is that the world will eventually die off and humans will no longer live in it it. Technology will be the only thing left of humans, and they will continue to do whatever the specific technology was programmed to do. Each of the visual artists convey their own message differently in their short movies. For example, GSADDStudents displayed a feeling of loneliness to portray their message that the world will die off and technology will be the only thing that’s left. At the end of the animation, the camera overlooks the neighbourhood that once stood. All the houses were destroyed and the only house that stood was slowly falling apart as well. The only moving thing in the neighbourhood was the robot.
