finger on the trigger - lyric video
Using advanced AI technology in tandem with her imagination and hours of photo and video editing, Andromeda directed, generated and animated this video for the seventh movement of the From the Earth suite entitled “Finger on the Trigger”. With it, she invites viewers into her mind and into a dystopian alternate reality where climate change has rendered an oppressive world and a mighty revolt.
From the Earth is an original Jazz suite composed by Andromeda Turre which explores environmental justice and the deep connection between humanity and the earth.
Continuing the tradition of utilizing jazz as a meduim to advance issues of social justice, andromeda was inspired by artists such as max roach, abbey lincoln, billie holiday and lead belly.
