One starting point for Stream Weavers is a shared fascination of the artists for what what they defined as a woven reality. It all started with a conversation around fantasy adventure game Loom, launched in 1990 by LucasArts. In this game, the Weavers Guild attempt to to weave subtle patterns of influence into the very fabric of reality".
"What the artist tried to achieve with Stream Weavers is to generate their shared vision about the fabric of reality and establish a coherent world constituted of various landscapes and the creatures who created them – just like spiders standing on their webs."
“They are the expression of weaving reality, by reconciling the chaos of the contingency with the order of patterns, good and evil, fear and desire”

“Un punto de partida para Stream Weavers es una fascinación compartida de los artistas por lo que definen como el tejido de la realidad. Todo comenzó con una conversación sobre el juego Loom de aventura y fantasía, estrenado en 1990 por LucasArts. En este juego, el Weavers Guild intenta tejer patrones sutiles de influencia a la misma tela de la realidad.”
“Lo que lxs artistas proyectan con Stream Weavers es generar una visión compartida sobre la tela de la realidad y establecer un mundo coherente constituido por varios paisajes y las criaturas que los crean - al igual que las arañas que se posan en sus redes.”
“Son la expresión de la realidad tejida, reconciliando el caos de la contingencia con el orden de los patrones, el bien y el mal, el miedo y el deseo”

Encore© presents SOURCE 003 SIDEQUEST, a collaborative project generated with artists Avocado Ibuprofen (Jaakko Pallasvuo) and designer Virgile Flores.

SIDEQUEST is a fusion of visual, musical and written expressions reflecting on our intricate relation to side-questing. As a term mainly used in video game context to describe "a quest given to the player that has no direct bearing on the main story/campaign of the game", outside of it, side-questing could refer to the hobbies, passion projects or amateur interests one can carry in time-consuming activities different from their 9-to-5 work.

The project originates with the curation of Avocado’s 10-page comic pamphlet, navigating his inner thoughts on the all-utilitarian aspect of our lives: the inevitable search for direction, the pressure of procrastinating our work to the point of failure, the intricate division between belonging in a pre-existing system or starting a side-quest revolution. Acting as the comic's soundtrack, SIDEQUEST mixtape starts with the whispering words taken from Avocado Ibuprofen's 9th strip litany. Collaborating with non-music artist / designer Virgile Flores on the mix was a purposeful decision to elaborate on the recurrent why all graphic designers wants to be DJs? interrogation.

SIDEQUEST's joint pieces are an attempt to dissect the different life cycles of work, from passions turned into professions, fed in turn with self-promoting strategies for financial survival. This collaboration evokes our hyper-focus on attention, the collective repel of wasted time, and the freedom that side-questing offers.

Sleeping Beauty Theme - Gallery Edit

Encore is a music label inspired by the contemporary meta landscape as a complex site of loss and potential.

Doom scrolling, over, above and beyond.
Culture’s nowhere to be found.
Definitely not Underground.
Sky streaming News on a loop.
Clouds. Gatekeepers. Our enemy’s invisible mode is on.
Now it’s just You + Me + the Internet baby
༼ つ ಥ_ಥ ༽つ

Theories about the existence of alternative realities are surfacing across all spheres of knowledge, crafts and disciplines.

Non-linear perspectives, meta horizons, layered point of views which so far had been undermined or deemed illegitimate are not only gaining awareness amongst the general public but also building new bodies and worlds that orbit each other, bound by gravitational attraction.

When meaningful matter can be mapped outside of our physical universe
the new Cosmos becomes an interconnected field of fragmented data built for a decentralised future.

Music tidal, galaxies of images, information black holes.
ENCORE is inspired by the contemporary meta landscape as a complex site of loss and potential.

Through deep mining, curation and manufacturing of digital assets - ENCORE aim to associate clusters of knowledge, aesthetics and vibes into an ever-expanding collectible and entertaining planetary ecosystem.
