For me- the subject matters , the objects,- for examples candles flickering, the puddles, the clay- all gave a very cold feel to this.

You know, that CSI thought has crossed my mind before, I'd guess they'd get numbed at a point and would separate the reality of the situation and begin to see colors, but I don't know, not a thought I ever fully thought through, but found it interesting you mentioned it as I have actually thought it. Yes the chinese porcelain metaphor is here.
