THE HAGUE, Netherlands, Aug. 24, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Inspired by H.G. Wells' timeless novel and the 1956 classic movie "Forbidden Planet," Cinematic Laboratory's interpretation of "War of the Worlds" takes an unpredictable direction. Instead of an invasion from Mars, we'll be invaded by Krell Technology from the forbidden planet Altair 4. The Krell were a highly civilized species, a million years ahead of us. But their technology became their downfall and they faced total extinction in a single night. Their machines were designed to materialize thoughts into reality, but unfortunately this also worked for their deepest fears and wildest nightmares. And now the technology has finally reached Earth. It's a gift, but it will take a few episode to figure that out. So in the meantime we'll have the usual tripod attacks, heat rays, zombies and gore. Whatever we can think of. However, this story is designed as a zero-casualty comedy with no swearing and it all ends well.

Key Points: 
  • Welcome to the immersive musical world of modular artist Cinematic Laboratory as the Lab unveils its latest sonic endeavor, "War of the Worlds 2023 AI".
  • The album showcases a fusion of an audio comic with music, 3D field recordings, cutting-edge AI text-to-speech dialogs and Chat GPT ghostwriting.
  • By combining handmade sounds, real analog voltage, and digital magic, Cinematic Laboratory is stretching the boundaries of 21st century 'bedroom' music production.
  • Wells' timeless novel and the 1956 classic movie "Forbidden Planet," Cinematic Laboratory's interpretation of "War of the Worlds" takes an unpredictable direction.
