Here & Elsewhere

Here & Elsewhere is a subtly interactive music video set 20,000 years in the future. Life on Earth has ended, and hyper-dimensional crystals have arrived in a blasted wasteland. They see beauty in the ruins and something of themselves in humanity’s striving. The crystals clear away the remains, send some to their museum, then reconstruct the planet in their own image and restore a harmonious balance.

The experience draws on the architecture, location and story of a venue in Bushwick, Brooklyn. As you look around, your gaze helps the crystals grow and transform the world; it is the only input. There are no goals or points to collect.

Here & Elsewhere reflects on archaeology, history and the way reconstruction inevitably involves misinterpretation. It also presents the decline and destruction of civilization and humanity as part of a cycle in which the Earth reabsorbs what remains and life becomes part of whatever comes next.
