In his latest piece for the Czech electronic duo Noisy Pots, he takes us on a hypnotic cosmic ride through time and space dominated by round and circular motifs and shades of black and white.

This music video animates a post-industrial landscape near Pardubice – non-touristy, seemingly peaceful and yet mysterious zones that are unpredictable and treacherous as if taken from Stalker.

This music video depicting the hopeless journey of a lost astronaut plays with composition in a non-traditional vertical format and toys with the aesthetics of total animation. For that reason, it uses a very limited colour palette.
