Nothing New Under The Sun is an audiovisual performance piece developed in collaboration between Archetype (Leonard Prochazka) and Luca Tornato. Studio versions of the music developed for the performance find their form in this digital release under the same name.

At the core of Nothing New Under The Sun lies a critical reflection on how today’s individual experiences—though more connected than ever—are increasingly shaped by feelings of isolation, anxiety, and fragmentation. Withstanding the immanent presence of decay the sonic realm holds great potential for inner growth and healing through repetition. The loop, as an illusion of timelessness, creates a void one can escape to. Based on this speculative theory the sonic techniques used in Nothing New Under The Sun focus on repetition, dissonance, and spatial consciousness to evoke emotional states tied to confusion, longing, and transcendence.

By creating a work that re-centers these experiences, we aim to offer a temporary escape from the fear-driven, hyper-individualized narratives that dominate our daily lives—a warm cave, so to speak, where those affected can retreat and realize they are not alone in their struggle with the cold digital void. We do not aim to provide answers but rather to create a space for collective awareness—one where viewers are invited to reflect on the cyclical nature of human existence, the inherited echoes of past generations, and the invisible threads that continue to link us as we navigate these often dystopian times.


Leonard Prochazka’s artistic practice has always been dedicated to exploring traces of a larger network of information—something like a collective consciousness that we feed into and draw from in times of need. A pool of experiences connecting us to generations past and future, across cultures. Since 2024, he has been investigating these questions more intrinsically through the sonic agency named “Archetype”. The project is an abstract scream for something quite fragile, exploring personal experiences of a polarising society and disruptive isolation. Contrastingly, the project embraces digitized, precise sound design with bold hooks and dramatic vocals, evoking industrial trip-hop and post-punk-leaning electronics.
