Synopsis

A miniature rainforest glows beneath saturated fluorescent light, presenting an artificial Eden that looks lush, calm, and strangely otherworldly. As the music unfolds, acid rain begins to fall across the polystyrene landscape. The plants, terrain, and carefully constructed paradise gradually dissolve, collapse, and lose their form. The video's simple transformation turns the track's ambient electronics into a visual study of decay, showing a manufactured natural world being destroyed by an unseen environmental force.

Factoids & Trivia

• The production used 12 liters of acid rain to destroy the model environment on camera.

• Model-making and effects work were handled by the special-effects team Die Mortal.

• Cinematographer Owen Richards photographed the miniature set, emphasizing its neon colors and stark silhouettes.

• The video was released on June 16, 2011, ahead of the debut Blanck Mass album's release through Rock Action.

• The concept is notable for matching the music's gradual thickening: the landscape begins as a clean, artificial paradise and becomes increasingly dark, unstable, and abstract as it breaks apart.
