DIRECTOR'S STATEMENT​
​
This work was created completely through listening — I listened to the music over a thousand times until every frame appeared in my mind. It wasn’t planned or storyboarded; it’s a pure improvisation born from sound.
​
Technically, it’s made with CGI, but emotionally it’s a stream of instinct — every movement and every light came from what I felt inside the music.
In terms of meaning, it reflects the birth of artificial intelligence — but not as a perfect or fully developed being. It’s an AI that’s still incomplete, still struggling to grow, misunderstood by those who believe it has already reached consciousness.
​
It’s about the fragility of creation itself, and the tension between what is born and what is not yet alive.
