They say...The possibilites are endless. The number of roads taken is infinite. The choices of one influence lives of thousands and millions  creatures. Choice... A certain event that splits the timeline in two  or three or more. Since we think we exist in this certain realm  only, is it possible for us to take a quick look at "what our lives  could've been like"? Well, why not! Though it's not always a pleasant journey.

But this time we'll travel far enough just to see the alternate outcomes of our choices - or the choices made by someone else. Different versions of us, different circumstances. Keep in mind that we can't stop at one place for long - otherwise we'll just stuck there for good. We're just gonna move slow enough to catch a few minutes of all the parallels.

A kaleidoscope of images. An exhibition of animated sculptures. A footage of one's past, present and future. A fusion of styles - that's what the second part of the series is. "Ephemeral II: Parallels" got its roots from the debut "Trapped Inside Reality" album, but expanded those ideas and embraced many experiments and experiences of one. This image could be described with many words - but is it worth it, when the image is alive and breathing?..
