Kubernetikós video by Aspic Boulevard premiered today by Prog magazine.

As announced today by Prog magazine “Aspic Boulevard release head-trip new video for Kubernetikós” The video for Aspic Boulevard new single Kubernetikós has been revealed. Conceived and entirely made by the band.
The various sculptures that appear in the video (the android’s head, the little robots and the mechanical fishes) were made by Marco, as well as the sets (the chessboard, the lunar landscape, etc.) and the springboxes.
Alessandro, on the other hand, worked on photography and filming, taking care of every technical detail of the video.
The work was developed in an artisanal way, including special effects. Various scenes were made with the stop motion animation technique.

The concept of the video is the relationship between nature and technology, man and machine: a dualism represented through the allegory of a chess game.

It is inspired by the atmospheres of Karel Zeman, Ray Harryhausen, Cristina Làstrego, etc.
