The Last Organics
Rekton Chronicles;Augmented Humanity--Chapter 6___
There were outliers, special individuals whom had natural resistance to this deep seated insanity--They were still 100% organic, no modifications. Similar to how some Buddhist monks practice Qi-Gong to harden particular parts of their body to brace for impact, these citizens were trained under the same doctrine.
"Endless metallic reflections, unable to discern where things stop and where they begin, our home has become enveloped and overthrown by an ancient timeless darkness. We had set up a sanitation zone of sorts a year before our biomass had awoken, warning of such, at the time, wild speculations nobody would even consider to understand. Raw humans make up no less than .5% of Rektons' population, we knew what was coming, we trained.
Perfecting ways to draw in and absorb, ultimately nullifying any biomass within our own blood stream. This process was hardly studied, practiced, or even recorded. Many perished due to the raw toxicity of biomass being introduced to the bodies' chemistry--we were the last organics. "
Notes on Detail: More soundscape heavy lifting 🏋️♂️. Running through an ultra black reflective city the last organic finds themselves between a rock and a hard place. Fully dilating their palms' funnel attempting to take in as much biomass as possible, a do or die scenario.
Notes on Creation: All video clips were rendered Octane Prime for Blender, the main render of this composition is the piece at the end, showing an organic drawing in biomass whilst trying to escape the inevitable . Originally started post-comp in AE using z-depth to dial in some fog depth as well as to set up the initial glitches, after that was ready to export, brought it into Premiere where it was looped seamlessly as well as adding 3 more pieces of media to better story-tell. The soundscape paints an out of breathe woman in desperate need of some kind of epiphany or 'big bang' leading into some more sci-fi SFX of whooshing portals and electronic energy.
