Not a fan of "marketing" things with severely over-used art concepts from the past. Wikipedia names as one of the characteristics of Dada, "a rejection of the prevailing standards in art through anti-art cultural works". Clearly, posting a slick video on Vimeo about a white object doesn't fit the name Dada. Better call it StoryShake, Tale Blender or Collage-thing.
I think it's okay to say this, because when you position something as "art" you invite critique.
