nominated and given the critic awards 19/20 (link)

how do we imagine extraterrestrial art? together we create a piece from another galaxy - performed by alien beings. we admire the pure enthusiasm in ensembles from the musical genre, the emotional pathos and the unconditional dedication and warmth. we come in peace strives to carry the same energetic potential as musical ensembles to release affective experiences, but with extraterrestrial strategies.
