We created a full CGI short film in collaboration with sound design studio Echolab, developed as a celebration of their identity and sonic craft.

Acoustic dust performance on the Red Planet, northwestern part of the Aeolis Quadrangle at 5.4˚S, 137.8˚E by KORB and ECHOLAB.

Set within a Mars like crater landscape, the environment is activated by sound driven energy, where sonic waves trigger large scale circular explosions across the surface. The terrain responds as a living system, translating audio into physical motion and transformation.

A gale is a very strong wind. Gale is also a crater on Mars where the NASA Curiosity rover landed in August 2012. It is the most advanced mobile robotic science lab ever to explore another planet. The rover aims to operate for a Martian year, but its nuclear power source may last up to 14 years. What does the future hold for Curiosity? Will the Mars rover ever leave Gale Crater?
