‘SIGN OF THE TIMES I&II’ EP

Elliot teamed up with fellow creative Alex Ness to create a virtual world based on the evolution of Tokio’s latest EP. Tokio created ‘Sign of the Times I & II’ during the 2020 pandemic.

During lockdown, Tokio began creating music from his home studio - with each track telling the story of humanity’s beginning, middle and end. We wanted to create something special that was based on tech, using only tools available to us during that time. The team took 3D scans of Tokio and took inspiration from his music to create the artwork for the EP.
