Conor Grebel and 79Ancestors
SHIGETO: HOVERING
Hovering is a transcendent tale of life-giving water brought to a dying planet. Constructed largely from physical elements digitally-scanned in nature, the vivid audiovisual collaboration with Shigeto offers an extraterrestrial virtual world built from terrestrial artifacts. The project’s director, Conor Grebel, creates stunningly original visual effects by combining both modern digital and traditional analog techniques, often using nature or chemical reactions as his main subject. The collaboration was created for a music compilation LP called Territories — an audiovisual concept album curated by the 79Ancestors label.
