*** This work is a part of my series work I made 1st part of ‘drop the matter’ in 2011 taking the scene and sound of dropping marbles from stairs, which I presented in 2012 in Dhaka Art Summit. Other parts 'drop the matter please' projected on the floor at 19th young artist art exhibition 2014, Shilpakala Academy, Dhaka.
In this part of the video, I threw some marbles on the wall and recorded the scene of hitting marbles several times with my camera. 
Some events of my childhood, I wanted to play some games that others play but did not know how to play or could not play that game. Some toys were so attractive to me that I could spend a whole day only with those toys without disturbing others or without being disturbed. I could throw those toys on the wall or on stairs or on the floor. This video from those unfulfilled desires.
