I like how her name is revealed to be "Ana Cassini". Cassini was the space probe that ended its mission by plunging itself into the surface of Saturn, never to be seen again, but sending out data until the very end...
❤
i was going to point out that this Video was uploaded 1 year BEFORE Cassini plummeted into Jupiter. But the dates were too close to not be coincidental, *this music video was released almost exactly 1 year* # before Cassini plummeted into Jupiter, an end-of-mission which was decided on over 3 yrs prior (at least). So yeah the dates & names could have been specified.
(#: give or take 1 day, i'm not good with international date conversions)
It’s just an italian surname. There is no need to come up with anything more.

"Anvil is a social network which allows you to destroy your body to fight against the overpopulation, but your conscience won't be destroyed and will join the social network Anvil. Soo, this is not really the Death, but a new kind of life created by the science to combat overpopulation."
Officially. 100/100
It’s just an italian surname. There is no need to come up with anything more.
I don't think anybody is going to read this, but I'd like to share it anyway.
A couple of years ago I went on an exchange to Edinburgh, Scotland, for a fall term during my undergraduate studies. It was my first time living abroad for a couple of months on end, I was very excited but also fairly nervous. When I was younger, I used to be afraid of leaving home for extended periods of time, so this was quite a big step. Contrary to my own expectations, however, everything went exceptionally well, I found dozens of new friends from around the globe that I am still in touch with to this day and I got to explore Scotland which - if you have never been - I can only highly recommend. On my very last day, I was even sad to leave which I never would have guessed before going there. To mark the occasion, I decided to hike Arthur's Seat in Edinburgh in the early hours of the morning so as to be at the summit at sunrise. I started walking around 3.30am when it was still fully dark and managed to make it to the top just in time to the see the sun come up. When I sat down at the top, I put on this song and listened to it while watching the city wake up. It was incredible and whenever I hear this song now, I always have to think back to that moment.
I am glad that you experienced that! cheers.
That sounds amazing. This song will always remind me of how I once lied on grass full of daffodils on a sunny summer day, petting my cat, and listening to my grandmum cooking lunch in the kitchen. Little I knew that this will be one of the last times I will see her alive. ❤
I imagined everything you said, with the song in the background. Thanks for sharing
You are one the top comments
@@Soroosh.S83 Well, he couldn't know that back when he was writing that comment
The fact that she had some sense of regret before she is transferred is horrifying
Yeah. It makes me kind of glad we live in a time where technology hasn't reached the capability to fuck with our mortality and make decisions like these
@@maxvillanueva3629 mortality, no. morality however, yes
Just curious, but where in the video does it show that she had "some sense of regret"?

you good bro?
Still holds up, years later. Stunning visuals.
A bit more backstory from GERIKO, creators of this video "“Right from birth, people receive a robot for their daily needs - cleaning up, games, education, social and sexual life - until the day it signals the end of their right to live on Earth,” the duo explains.
“The robot then follows his owner to one of the Anvil facilities, activating the machine that will end the citizen’s days. During this transition, the body is destroyed and a part of the robot is recycled as a server/funerary urn.”"
I feel that the robot doesn’t signal your end, it is your choice with the world being so over populated. She has the walk and look of determination and confidence, this is when she will move on from her physical place on earth. She is able to choose her own dimension onto which she will end.
@@teknoboy15 Sure, tell the people who made it what it means. 🤨
@@csn583
Yes !! Exactly so!! Please do!! In fact, please don't ever stop either!! It's so invigorating and energizing hearing others unique interpretations. And private touching meaning. The song will mean something absolutely completely different to every single person hearing and experiencing it. And that is the beauty in the freedom of individualism
1:20. This is when she choose what kind of artificial consciousness she would be.
thank you for explaining

Lorn is a fucking beast, along with all the people who do his videos
Literally all of his videos are phenomenal pieces, so slept on
For this video, duo Geriko composed by Antoine Caëcke et Hélène Jeudy,
A real fucking artist.
Anyone else wish the humming had a little more base to it? Just for some added epicness, the song is still great otherwise.
It's pronounced sprgjkbrfrptrpt.
I discovered this while in an altered state. It was simply a spiritual experience. Profound. It stayed with me for months. When I want to recapture the feeling I come back here and watch again. The combination of LORN's music and GERIKO's visuals is something else. I would love to see more from GERIKO in this style. I must have watched this video at least 100 times by now! Please come back and create some more masterpieces. Sadly, it has been 7+ years.
Could you describe this better? There was a period of a few months when I felt something similar to this often
Do you guys produce music?@@juliomatos37
мой совет профессионала - посети психолога
My son is 14 and has Autism. This is his stim song. Music that can be felt physically can be very beneficial to people who are neurodivergent. ❤
My friend has a younger son who is also autistic, maybe he can get something out of this song.
Feel like this sort of animation would have done well in an episode of Love, Death and Robots.
Fucking zima blue man.
Yeah a cool short film for LD&R is the next logical step for the GERIKO team !

Ghost in the shell type vibes from this music video.
Also, the track is rad.

Thought exactly the same
The description does say that it is inspired by works like Ghost in the Shell, soooo-
I guess I just want somewhere to share my story.
When I was 19 I took shrooms, and it was like I was turned inside out. As a child, I was very extroverted and loved being around people. And after the shrooms, I felt disconnected from everyone and everything around me. I just wanted to alone. I am learning to feel happiness from within myself, not running from myself. It's been a LONG and PAINFUL process but once it's healed, it's healed and beautiful.
0:13 Its like that...people just stress me tf out.
@@Mirable-ps6sbone time i did shrooms (my first n only time but i had done acid before)
and i started to notice how badly my friends treated me and i saw how we interracted with each other more clearly, and it really opened my eyes.
@@JuanMadelineI can relate to that. It definitely was the beginning of the end for me too. But the ending of something less real, so I'm ok with it. Just took a lot of adjusting and I can't bring others with me like I tried to at first. 0:06

Lorn: Geralt, I need some help writing lyrics for this track.
Geralt: Mmmh
Lorn: Perfect! Thanks for having my back!
I love the White Wolf and your comment ***winds howling***
I’m confused though what does this video have to do with the witcher universe? :-0
*this, this is what having really good sound quality headphones is for* ....pure perfection
This song makes me cry every time I listen to it, and I don't know why... I guess it just feels larger than life somehow. Lorn has a way of doing that with his music.
That happens to me but with Golden Brown by the Stranglers sometimes.
I get the sense in this song that she's entering a simulation or even becoming the god of a simulation and having to take on the weight of being the creator of life in whatever simulation she's about to enter is sad and painful and hard and amazing and wonderful and beautiful and I just feel the same way you do I start to cry a little bit but I love it
@@nicknichter4442 She is being lured into the reincarnation cycle. We are trapped. Earth is a soul prison.
not with his recent ones, but at least he' not drugged out of his mind anymore, think he's given us enough
This song makes me cry, too. It transports hopelessness directly into my heart.
Sometimes I feel sad that my friends dont 'get' Lorn. But seeing a comment section of people who feel the same as I do makes me happy beyond words.
Eh not alone bud
@@brokenslinky9992 I hear ya and he's not and I'm glad other ppl say so too made me feel better reading what he said
Yeah, I have a hard time with highly interpretive work. Don't think any less of your friends because of it. It's overtly self perspective, I don't think the intention of the work was meant to lead you feeling the same as everyone else in the comment section.
я тоже с тобой брат()
Love you, You get it.
I am sure that Lorn makes that kind of music that you'll hear right before death
Its funny you should say that, this looks like what you might expect in the "Home" scene from Soylent Green where you went to die peacefully.
Or maybe the "Carousel" part of Logan's Run...
Both of those movie scenes were running in my head while watching this.
well u die listening to this so ur sorta rght. veeery strange "music"
well if youre listening to “Ghosst” right before death you must be a badass assassin or sum
Anvil: *starts playing*
Credits: *appear in the sky*
Me: Ah, that's it then. I'm ready.
@@donnyarmstrong9559 I watched that with my mother. Creepy, especially with the changes the world is experiencing, and the fact it took place in 2022.
This song does indeed feel a lot like some kind of futuristic euthanasia, or even more weirder, a human sacrificing themselves to the transhuman altar of AI.
I come back here every once in a while. can`t believe it`s been 7 years.. probably will keep doing so until my memory fades. a good life to everybody !
IDK how many times I will replay this clip. This is one of the best animations that I've seen in my entire life
This raises interesting questions on what it means to be human. It's my dream to have my mind uploaded into simulated reality so I can be whoever and whatever I want, relive my memories and do the impossible without limitations. Do all of those things lose value simply because they are virtual? Is the virtual world not also real? What does it even mean to be human? Is it our consciousness that makes us human or our physical bodies?
When you can have everything to the extent of your imagination, what is the definition of value?
+Lazaro Vallejo shit man...
Awesome!
It has no value for the world because it doesn't change it (it's virtual). But for you it's up to decide.
Razias Razias What is it?
Damn.. listening to this laying in bed at 2 am while questioning yourself about everything. Remembering the people you missed, the one you loved, your place among the stars, your choices, and everything else that make yourself who you are. It's heartwarming to see that many people in the same kind of mindset. Thanks Lorn you truly deserve to be called "an artist".
Ive met very few people that listen to music late at night, i can conclude we are a different breed.
@@yoloyogurt7678 greetings to you both. comforting to see like-minds out there.
I agree with this assertion 🔥❤️👊🏻
It's 4 AM and wondering if my soul goes to another dimension after death... I saw this video when it came out.. It's been a long time.. Time is the 4th dimension....
Ahhhh
One of the best songs ever! Amongst the great! ❤

This afterlife would be worse. Having to read all those messages of love from people you left behind, that you can't go back to.
Then one day it just stops. Nobody mentions you. The wall goes dark. Forever.
@@daftmi9hty327 if you arnt remembered, you never existed
@@daftmi9hty327 I believe we never truly "die". It doesn't matter if no one remembers you, your choices and their consequences will ripple throughout the system of the world, influence other people, who in turn influence others and so on. Your effect on the world only dies when the last consious being on this planet dies. Such is the interconnectedness of our world, even more so now given the internet.
You're assuming you retain your emotions in the digital afterlife. Most likely it matters not. You would be a shell and your consciousness, data.
Gabe Gabriel you know in a weird way that makes me happy
How can you assume something you haven't seen or experienced...
A video game with this graphic style would be INSANE. Especially with the game mouse coming out. Whoever edited this is a god among men, with a vision!
This actually might be one of the best music videos I've ever seen. It is incredible.
1:48 She tries to touch herself, but the cable pulls her hand. Lovely detail. She gets no pleasure. This is not a good experience. It's only death.
you should check out my art- the short arms and pudgy body explain perfectly where human evolution is going- especially for the non-elites
P. Spit ok?
I actually took it a different way. Her entire nervous system is being digitized and failing in the real space. Her body is arcing due to the sensation of her nerves registering in her real brain for the last time. The hand gesture it to give it a slightly dirty visual to shift the tone to indicate this is something she chose for herself. Something she is willingly doing to herself; as its a form of ego masturbation to become eternal, no?
I’m not sure that it was a moment of trying to touch herself in a pleasurable way. From my understanding, which could be entirely wrong of course, but she could be trying to feel ANYTHING AT ALL while her nervous system is, frankly, disintegrating.
@@Etherslide Yeah I can see this aswell. Feels like the last grasp of a dieing being
I’m a linguist and I took the time to frame by frame the messages scrolling. Here’s what I can gather:
Ana is uploading here consciousness to a system that lets you select from different “digital planes of existence”. Ana chose one called Anvil.
In Anvil the scrolling text appears to be messages from the other consciousnesses that populate it.
Deconstructing the text it appears to be a sort of neo-English combined with evolved emoji speak.
The messages are all the the effect of
“Welcome to Anvil”
“Greeting Ana with love”
People telling her their names
I think there may also be a welcoming party planned.
Best video ever!
I also was born a linguist, (ironic right I'm human) what she was saying is DON'T DO IT IT IS A TRAP, IT IS DEATH. welcoming party? whos side are you on cyborg!
That's kinda cool that you can gather that from some background detail
@@j897j - Maybe few the few seconds after 01:23, and after 02:57 to the end of the video. But I really do not know how to decode the scripture on the screen. I suppose even crypto-specialists from the NSA would have a problem to do so. But maybe "Hemingway Coppertop22" will give us a hint.

Lorn songs feel weird at first listen but still make you want to go back to them and the more you listen the more you start to enjoy them.
update: at first i was thinking "nope its not even close to being as good as acid rain, idk kinda mid" and just skipped it
then whenever i saw it somewhere i clicked it but i still didnt really think its good, just okay
but now i am totally obsessed and im listening to this on a loop since hours. holy shit. this is so fkn good.
Dark, but enlightening at the same time
I don't really see how it's dark.
+Ian Nordin Well she's committing suicide by plugging into anvil which is mandatory because of the world being overpopulated. It's a social media network for the dead. I'd say that's pretty dark.
well I mean she's not really dying if she's still conscious in the virtual world as is implied
Ian Nordin Being stuck in a social media network for eternity seems like hell to me but that's just my opinion.
Ian Nordin but is it really her though? Say I make an exact copy of your brain and copy all your thoughts and memories to it too. Is that second brain you too? Can a virtual transfer of biological consciousness be said to really be the original individual?
Dark and disturbing, yet beautiful and strangely comforting. I will never forget this video.
I will remember him on the day of my death!

LORN clearly deserves more attention, but I don't want them to become too famous, I'm such a terrible person
😂
Yeah bro musics 'totally' cooler when no one else knows about it. That way i can totally flex dick while measuring it with my checkered and studded belt with metrics on it when asking people if they've ever heard of him.
really are. I don't get where you guys get off hoping that a group you enjoy don't garner major success just so you can be seen as liking non mainstream music. I just don't get that mindset. If they change, they change.
That's the point though, when artists/groups become "mainstream" they change. Their music changes to appeal for their wider fanbase and as a result they tend to produce (worse) music. Also, LORN is just one guy so you're a terrible person for not knowing that.
Alex Jenkinson that's a great point dude, saw that first hand with The Weeknd. First four albums? Fucking magic, the rest has gone to garbage to appeal to wider audiences.
Got here from a recommendation on a 40k video... the Emperor has blessed me this day.
Beautiful style and imagery. Whoever directed this needs to do bigger things.

Gives me the whole Soylent Green vibe, creepy and sad. (2 hours later) EDIT: The more I watch this, the more terrifying it is.
(4 Hours later): This is truly horrifying, this is about a
woman using a suicide machine. We watch her consciousness get disassembled (as she
dies) and her digital copy waking up. Finding itself in the strange ruins of a
social media site. Whilst that’s going
on the body has been disposed of (fire, liquefaction?) and placed in to a
funeral urn! She’s dead and we had a
front row seat!
but she is so young only 27
well, Logans run / soylent green. In soylent green the idea was also to reduce the population.
Exactly what I felt watching the video. Great observation.
Yeah Anvil is pretty much a social media site for the dead. It's such a creepy and haunting image. I can't help but wonder if the people are picked randomly or do all of them have to plug into anvil at the age of 27?
I'm glad someone else was as freaked out by this as I was lol.
Nostalgia is the warmest type of melancholy and this song embraces it so I can swim in it.
Sometimes i hate the TH-cam algorithm. But im grateful this popped up years ago. Its amazing
This track has a very strange effect on me. It pulls very deep strings of my inner world. It's so disturbing and relaxing in the same time. Listening to this is like to be on the edge between dream and awareness, like single moment separate me from discovering something incredible fabulous and unthinkable. Something that I forgot when I was born.
hint: this is the virtual reality, but the joke is, all of reality on every level is virtual by its very nature, a creation of consciousness. the ancient hindus had this shit all figured out many thousands of years ago btw.
@@nickgold2012 Yeah that's right. And modern science only prove this idea. Quantum physics, string theory, inflation theory and others achievements. We, our consciousness and all endless number of Universes are just spontaneous oscillations of space. We and all Universe only "dream" ourself at the edge of reality.
Woah, I see what you mean. This video/song makes me sad and alone, yet somewhat glad and appreciative. Just me?
It's like magic
Concerned Citizen, I think this soundtrack somehow resonates with limbic system so we affected by deep emotions beyond the words. Rare thing.
Can we appreciate how amazing the art style and overall video looks AND how it fits with the music so perfectly
It is a stunning combination !
You know the clip is fire when you don't if it's supposed to accompany the music or the opposite
The best and most honest thing I have seen in 12 years of what I have seen, I am delighted!
Me, before reading the description: "Damn this is some cyberpunk erotica fantasy and I'm here for it."
Me, after reading the description: "Why am I crying?"
Lol kinda same here
We ain't disappointed aren't we?😹
I was wondering. What if a program accessing your brain could release you into a malleable, dreamy virtual world of your choosing, while at the same time making you forget about your real life, and even your existence as a physical entity. Where you just become a bodiless being, totally free of pain and mental suffering, and perhaps filled with sensuality. It would be like a powerful escapist drug.
That would be amazing
John Smith We do exactly that here although in a different way but the game got a virus hack.
So kinda like a really controllable dmt, or a machine induced REM sleep?
You don't need a program. Research "4 Noble Truths" and the Eightfold Path. The cessation of suffering in all forms comes from within.
Imagine a sadistic computer virus
I'm not even high and this just totally blew my mind
Beautiful. Exactly my kind of atmosphere and ambience
At first I thought I didn't like Lorn. Not enough, at least. I think it might be the unusual song structure. Many of them feel like just background- or loading screen music, but after falling asleep to it and having the best dreams and rest of my life, I'm sold. This isn't something to put on to get pumped for a night out, or some catchy throwaway piece of pop you repeat to death within a week. This is the kind of music that makes me feel like electronica, though flooded with stuff that just tastes, feels and sounds like cheap plastic, is a genre with unlimited potential in the right hands. And I think these hands have a pretty good feel for it.
Damn fine stuff.
well said
I have to agree fellow human. Only by chance did I find Lorn. I'm a huge music person I love most things pre 2000's. For me this music makes me feel connected to something. What that is I have no idea. I feel like it touches the soul if there ever was such a thing its the kind of music you sit down to and just listen. Its like a message. Never in my life have I ever experienced something like it and I love it.
Tinywars i got the same feeling also by watching the pre 2000s movies,they got so much soul...
Or is it a spirit of certain times that we are all being connected to?
i am born in 1987 and listening lorn gives me same feeling when i saw an ending of first Terminator with dark clouds coming ,unsettled,anxious maybe to but excited mostly.
greetings to all
Nothing to admit...we’ll said!!!
I can feel that too
It makes me think of how dangerous the future will be.
That dangerous future just started ...
Makes me think of how beautiful it can be!
Then let's end it
@@nadahaitham8388 how?

We can kill all humans including you and me but that's a murder
So maybe we can kill scientists and ppl enterested in technology but still a murder. So the third solution is just stop developing our technology and live by ourselves for just once
We won't die without it anyway
There are other worlds than these. Thank you for the amazing video! That was one of the most incredible things I have witnessed as of late.
This song and video have always come back to my mind randomly throughout the last few years since I first listened/saw the video. Just amazing.
Whichever artist loves to design trapezoidal doors must have creamed their jeans when they were approached for this video.
A visual and audio masterpiece , watching this while coming down from a lsd trip, this melted my brain, its a un-describable experience , this is pure ART
What happened in the video ? She went there to die ? To be uploded ?
Same:)
This music makes me feel like ive discovered music for the first time in my life.
This is an absolute masterpiece
This tells such an incredible story. Each time I come back it just takes my breath away
I will never get tired of these amazing sounds and equally terrifying graphics. One of the best! 😍
Absolutely fkn Brilliant! ✌️
Actually you said it spot on , peace 💯
I think you might like this music video on the Evolution of the Universe! th-cam.com/video/AQPydM31V5s/w-d-xo.html
Thanks TH-cam. I had lost this song from years ago and it just showed up in my recommended out of nowhere
They’re watching you.
Same!!
Rediscovered this after 5 years of losing it in my Playlist. Searched "animation electronic music video woman uploaded to afterlife overpopulation" and finally found it. The low hum gave me massive goosebumps just like the 1st time i heard it. It is now fully entrenched in my study Playlist. Sometimes on repeat.
Saaaaaaame bro! Typed in "Girl plugs in to machine animation"
Just search "Lorn" wtf lol
@@razt9776 wow what a great idea, except I didn't know the name, thats the whole point of my comment
Same! About 4 years for me, some things* we think are lost to Entropy and Time always find their way back to us.
@@christianmaas8934 And now you won't forget :)
Magnificent. Beautiful. Breathtaking. Intricate and sophisticated, subtle and served with love, obviously. I come back to this video often, it's important to me, as the music also is. Thank you. :)
Mix the Matrix and Ghost In The Shell together and you'll have this.
I so thought of Ghost in the Shell, you are not kidding!
Matrix was based off of Ghost In The Shell so it's kinda redundant. As the description says, it's "A fusion of both Japanese and Belgian comics inspirations and sensibilities, such as Ghost in the Shell, Akira or Peeters & Schuiten's work. "
Papasconketchup I wouldn't say that seeing as how the Matrix was created by a Black woman who came up with her own theory.. Her idea was stolen however and put into Hollywood and she didn't get any of the profits or Atleast a shout out for her creation.
I REALLY WANT TO FUCK EVERYTHING!!!
That Chimichanga Who Needs Some Love. Kinky.
utterly depressing, but musically and visually stunning; best music video I have seen so far in 2021
I wish I had not read this comment because I didn't see this as depressing.
Perhaps I'm just weird, but the concept of transhumanism instills in me a sense of hope.
It's a dark and light sound...and doomish...it puts me in focus mode able to get stuff done.
@@odielag no...don't say that...I don't feel it to sound depressing ...to me it's light and dark with a doomish visual...but it makes me concetrate. You see it the way I do.
you should write reviews
I'll never get tired of this song
Me neither.
On repeat all the time
Animation with deep meaning. It surprises you in the end.
This gives me Ghost In The Shell vibes.
What A beautiful DUWANG *chew* probably because it took inspiration from it
read the description
Well...that settles it.
I got a Birdy Nam Nam - Parachute Ending vibe.
Read the description.
Reading the description is for squares.
Lorn has done it again helping me reach into the dark inter-workings of my brain and heart.
cant do it on your own?
Can't do it without insulting someone else?
This is my go-to when feeling anxious, as it manages to re-balance me and allow me to find a level head once again. Music like this can work miracles.
Always, come back to this one from time to time, still gets me 27 years and life is over. Makes you look at your own life and think, damn did I do enough, was my life full, fulfilling, and did I leave any kind of legacy? Crazy how a song by Lorn was transformed by the Geriko crew into this short anime odyssey. I'm sure I'll be hitting play on this for years to come!
I can't stop listening.
me to 😂😂😂...and am scared of it 😂😂😂😂
PinWin Productions man if u love this song dont listen it too many times, because after that u gonna hate it
@@sbek1386 well I still love it surprisingly
I like how the last body in the chair has turned to dust and blows away.
J'ai découvert cette musique il y a peu et elle me fait ressentir beaucoup d'émotions. De la nostalgie mais elle me donne aussi du courage pour continuer à aller de l'avant. Je trouve le clip soigné dans son style minimaliste et il me parle beaucoup.
Juste incroyable!
The art and music combo is extraordinary
