i wanted to tell you how we made the visuals for nerve-bloom i did it with Natalia Kleszczewska and Natalie Liu . Natalia Kleszczewska is a painter , she painted the creatures and the backgrounds . Natalie Liu is a computer graphics director , she shaped the digital dimension of the work . my role in it was a creative director , bringing in the singer-songwriter tradition , where emotionally precise things happen inside the structure of a song . i guided colour pallettes , textures and the environments the music happens in . to make this possible , during the process , natalia often had to paint many shapes and sizes , different textures and layers of colours . natalie then developed the visuals, designing and overseeing CGI elements , and finding ways for the digital to sit organically alongside Natalia’s world . and include my dramaturgy and creative direction. we spent 7 months talking and working together , dedicated to relish in the craft of blending hand-made visuals with digital experimentation , 3D design and commit it to physical display technology . a lot of time was spent on researching different tools and techniques to find what worked best at each stage in the song . like i’ve done before , i wanted to merge old things with tech , giving it soul & a meaning . to paint a painting is an analog craft but computer programming is craftmanship too !! and both can co-exist , .....encouraging each other to bloom even further towards a mutual world . there is a tradition in pop music for the mucisian to choose a video director . in the art world , this is called “curation” , but where we came from , it was natural that the musician would have strong opinions on what your song needed , which mood , colours , textures & storyline . today this is called “creative director” and it is something we didn’t credit ourselves with in the 90s , but i am starting to understand this better now . i don´t think of me as a visual artist . because my heart is music . everything i do comes from a sonic point of view . this is something i have called “sonic symbolism” , sound made visual , a reverse synesthesia . when you listen to a song for the first time , it is like swallowing a whale , you need to feel the whole musical sculpture in one go . the structure of a song has always been extremely important to me : what shape it is . this is part of the craft of being a singer-songwriter ........... we are tune sculpturors ....... since i am talking about the visuals for nerve bloom it is impossible to not mention the avatars in my music videos . they have replaced the storyteller with anattempt to connect to the more universal element of music , through animation, avatars , puppetry both digital and analog . for me they are marionettes in a puppet-theatre , hopefully in a similar realm as the jungian archetypes ( which we all can act out the characteristics of ...) .... i feel nerve-bloom is a natural continuation .... an animated avatar archetype singing you a song ––––– Avatars, animation and archetypes: Nerve Bloom (remix) – on display at Listasafn Íslands / National Gallery of Iceland until September 20th 2026. The production of this film was made possible with the generous support of #bottegaveneta.

From now on, whenever some luddite throws a tantrum and blanket-calls something “AI slop” without even looking at it, we can point them to this wonderful experiment by @SHL0MS. Well played! 😂🤌

Elon Musk spent $290 million to elect Trump. Musk got $512 billion richer since Trump was elected & is now worth $815 billion. He wants to cut Social Security and Medicare by $500-$700 billion a year. You’re not angry enough.

GM fam, Faces sold out. Decades of work, built independently. Thanks @RDToTheMoon @iconic__culture This is just the beginning.

MIKE BROWN: “Everyone Trump surrounds himself with is fake. Fake lips, fake tits, fake gold, fake pools, fake bible verses for crying out loud.” It’s so true though.

While it's a relief that the number of people with moronic views is artificially inflated, it is disturbing that enough people are moronic enough to fall for this slop...

Excited to announce my first solo exhibition opening on 24th of April in Dresden, Germany.

It's an honor to see Origin, a work I created for the Homage Brâncuși exhibition, now on view at the National Theater in Craiova, Romania Thank you @ArtBeesGallery Curators @NONE32X32 & @erikarand

I'm honored to have my work exhibiting as part of Homage Brâncuși at the National Theatre in Craiova, Romania, alongside an incredible group of artists! In this silent piece - an homage to Brâncuși's Bird in Space - I worked with sound as a material, carving it with sonic processes, shaping the visual image by reducing and manipulating the sound that constructs it, a subtractive process that aims to discover and uncover what exists in the material (echoing how Brâncuși characterized his work in sculpture). Available for auction as a 1/1 (details below)
