Illuminated is a new animated series being created by some of the people behind GNN (Guerrilla News Network), Phong.com (Eminem's "Mosh"), Pod Collective, Broken Saints, and ConceptArt.org.
Set in the not-too-distant future, planet Earth is being ravaged by rampant environmental change and collapsing economies, as widespread social movements triggered by online interaction are reshaping the face of world politics. Saturated by media, people have lost their ability to dream and plug into a sophisticated communication system each night called the DreamField, which gives them access to a virtual dream-state, networked with the rest of the world. Online, dreams have become just another kind of media, and a group of dreamstars have emerged as the culture's new celebrities. Coming from an established political family, Aya is one of the most popular dreamstars, and millions plug into her dreams every night to experience her adventures through a hyper-dimensional vide-game reality, live as they sleep.
The series charts Aya's coming of age as she travels with her guru, Shen, on a transformational journey to visit the most spiritually charged places on Earth - re-connecting with the wisdom-keepers of the planet and re-learning the ancient spiritual traditions to evolve her consciousness and fight to restore humanity's ability to dream.
PROJECT UPDATE :
For the last 3 years we've have been in development with a team of amazing artists on a feature animated film for Illuminated. Along the journey we've met some truly humbling allies - traveling throughout India, Thailand, Japan and the USA. This coming year we're planning to return to all our previous destinations and also trek out to Australia and Peru in our search for the Illuminated Masters (rare beings who bridge the spiritual and material planes) to incorporate their wisdom deeper into the story. We're honored by all of the support from our friends in all corners of the planet on our quest so far! We'll see you again soon.
Final release on the film is still years away so we thank you for your patience! Big things move slow. In the meantime we're in production building a new website with social tools to catch our dreams and weave them together - set for launch in early 2010. You'll see!
