This is the first basic version I came up with, simply by changing the color of the building and adding 2 divider columns at the bottom ,wood textures drawers and knobs, and topping it with a recolored pediment from the Senate building. Now, somebody will have to make the drawers come in and out, and things fall from one to the other. My mechanical hands can pull them, or they can do it on their own.
I am not sure whether it will be necessary to map the whole thing in 3D to make it work, or whether we can get by with a simplified version using the scale tool on the front of the drawers, since from the perspective of the spectator, only the bottoms of the top drawers, the top of the bottom drawers, and one side of the left and right drawers can be actually be seen...
I think along the lines of a sequence in the fantastic 1985 animated film by the Brothers Quay in Homage to Jan Svankmajer, the great Czeck Animator: "Le Cabinet de Svankmajer". If you have never seen it and are interested in stop motion animation before computers,take the time to look at it on YouTube.If you don't know who Svankmajer is, check out his "Alice" at Netflix, it was done in 1988, and it's far superior to Tim Burton's or anybody else's in my view.
