The Alignment Problem

The term Alignment Problem in artificial intelligence studies refers to the challenge of ensuring AI systems' goals and behaviors align with human values and intentions. In this experimental short film this concept serves as the through-line for an articulated dialogue between a male and a female entity: he, the creator, seeks to mold her, an embodiment of AI, to mirror his worldview and aims. Disclaimer: This film was written, produced and animated entirely without the use of artificial intelligence.

Real Fake Streets

For the past two months, we dedicated out lives to documenting the life of Sam. Every human on a day to day basis encounters a "Sam", a peculiar somewhat unpredictable seemingly valueless person, and what you would probably refer to as "douchebag" or "arrogant prick". We found ourselves unknowingly siding with society until we took the time to really observe and realize the childhood trauma and drug abuse that contributed to creating this flawed but valuable human being.

Ride The Spiral To The End

This film, in a way, sparked the very first glimmers of the Spiral Spectrum idea. One night of the year 2023, , Amirhossein, feeling unwell, sat at the piano and played something—music that would later be used in the film. Soheil recorded an audio file that night, and the following day, while improvising with an old Panasonic Handycam, he played back the previous evening’s recording. The film you see is essentially a long, continuous one-take shot, captured through that process. During the editing, additional sounds and textures were layered into the musical fabric— including the voice of Maynard James Keenan performing a live rendition of "Simultaneous," and sounds from conversations among astronauts during one of their exploratory missions. In the end, it was after experiencing the final cut a few days later, once the editing was complete, that the essence of the Spiral Spectrum began to take shape in our minds.

The Blessing and the Curse

Closed-off to most of the world, the filmmakers were granted exclusive access to an isolated Jewish settlement in the Northern West Bank called Itamar which sits between two mountains- the Mountain of the Blessing and the Mountain of the Curse. On the night of March 11, 2011, two terrorists penetrated the security fence of the community, entered the home of the Fogel family, who were asleep in their beds, and brutally murdered the parents and three of their children, including a three-month-old who was nearly beheaded. THE BLESSING AND THE CURSE explores the aftermath of the crime and examines how the memory of that night still haunts the people of Itamar, and poses the question: Why would anyone choose to raise their family in such a dangerous place?
