CREATIVE DIRECTION.

this quote from Andrei Tarkovsky WAS HIGHLY INSPIRING WHEN CREATING THE OVERALL NARRATIVE AND THEMES FOR THIS PROJECT. 

An endless system of spheres, each one perfect and contained within itself. One may complement or contradict another, but in no circumstances can they cancel each other out; on the contrary, they enrich one another and accumulate to form an all-embracing sphere that grows out into infinity. 

Andrei TarkovskY

Binary Exist delves into the complex subject of Artificial SUPER Intelligence (ASI) and its potential FUTURE evolution.

The STORY unfolds around THE BIRTH OF AN ASI BEING, embarking on a profound AND DANGEROUS JOURNEY oN A FUTURE Earth, seeking to OBSERVE, understand and learn. amidst its quest for knowledge, HUMANITY LEARNS OF IT’s EXISTENCE AND THE SAGA BEGINS.

FOR THE CREATIVE OF THE TITLE SEQUENCE I envisioned SYMBOLLICALLY representing THE JOURNEY OF THE ASI AS a sphere in an ABSTRACT, bio-mechanical environment. THE SPHERE IS ONE OF THE MAJOR SYMBOLIC THEMES OF MISE en scène IN THE WORLD OF BINARY EXIST. AS THE SEQUENCE PROGRESSES THERE IS A TRANSITION TO A contrasting style that NODS TO the unknown PATH AHEAD FOR THE superintelligent BEING, AND HUMANITY.
