đź’  The inspiration and story:

In the great metropolis, where the obsession for progress is present, people live their daily lives by the clock. Work and fun keep the city pulsing and growing, where its citizens don't care what happens beyond.

This piece is a new musical adventure we explore the rushed life of the citizens, which is inspired by the lifestyle of the 50's and New York City (That's why the city looks like New York), adding some elements of dieselpunk aesthetics. Although it could be placed between dieselpunk, decopunk, and atompunk,...etc.

In this music, I have had a lot of fun exploring the elements of Jazz and some minimalism.

đź’  The visuals:

In editing, I had a lot of fun creating the sequences for this video. The still images in this production were created with AI: Midjourney, Stable Difussion XL, and DallE3.
AI imagery is used to give you anxiety while they tried to be "happy", “art” made industrially by soulless machines, to maximize profits for a few, in this piece that mocks an abusive capitalism, and a luxurious and irresponsible lifestyle while most people are cogs in a machine that leaves them without energy.

The animations were created with After Effects, for the satellite views I used Google Earth Studio since the AI couldn't do flat satellite views.

The 3D models used are:
"Heavy Escort Frigate, "Le Téméraire" Class" (skfb.ly/oJuLw) by H.Foucault.
"ZEPPELIN" (skfb.ly/QLVV) by Alexey
"AOT Marley Airship" (skfb.ly/6YH97) by Solarliu
