Directed by Kaliptus (Miguel Rodrigues) 2d Animation BFA Thesis for SVA Get ready for an infernal trip that extends beyond life & death in this primordial descent from Pure Light into Darkness. Experience themes of Self-Transcendence in their most extreme polarities as you watch characters violently morph and mesh, separately and together, in this strangely lurid universe of "Predator & Prey Duality".

Let this be a mirror to you, the viewer... ...and may the lesson be Love, (Influenced by the Chaos Magick style of paintings accidentally created in 2004) Directed by Kaliptus ©2006(Less)
