The Man in the High Castle is a conceptual 3D music video set in a dystopian future, exploring the rise and reign of a tyrannical ruler. Blending futuristic visuals with a haunting soundtrack, the piece unfolds as a surreal narrative about power, control, and resistance. The song is written by Nawaf Tamim and performed by Nadian Benz, Tamim’s musical alter ego. Embracing low-quality, glitchy production aesthetics, the project intentionally challenges the notion that art must be polished or high-budget to be impactful. Instead, it leans into imperfection as a form of rebellion—mirroring the themes of the video itself. As part of his ongoing exploration of building music videos within 3D worlds, Tamim uses this piece to question both artistic norms and oppressive systems.
New Socotra is a 3d animated film set in a post-futuristic world where humanity has abandoned advanced technology and returned to primal tools. In this new era, humans coexist with otherworldly beings—ghouls, the dead, and ancient creatures—blurring the line between myth and reality in a haunting yet poetic exploration of survival and connection.
