The track name is Pho3nix and the lyrics talk about hack­ers and the hacker’s world. The group leader now would like to make a video­clip for such track and the movie maker would like to receive images, draw­ings, pic­tures, movies any sort of visu­ally artis­tic thing done by hack­ers while lis­ten­ing to this audio track and think­ing about what the con­cept of hacking/​hacker visu­ally rep­re­sents to them. To help Roulette Cinese to col­lect visual mate­r­ial for the video­clip I am now run­ning around ask­ing to hack­ers to lis­ten to this track https://​sound​cloud​.com/​e​r​r​e​-​p​i​/​r​o​u​l​e​t​t​e​-​c​i​n​e​s​e​-​p​h​o​e​n​i​x-rmx and if inter­ested to par­tic­i­pate, to send me a visual art­work for what hack­ing means to them. It could be rep­re­sent­ing any sub­ject, in whichever style, it’s totally up to every sin­gle par­tic­i­pant as long as it related to hack­ing. The pictures/​artworks can be signed with your name or nick­name.
