Aelita

The stage design for Intergalatiс FM radio station’s showcase was conceived of as a response both to the station’s name and as an expression of universal love for everything unearthly.

In incorporating the retro futuristic aesthetics of the Dutch radio station Intergalatiс FM, which had just “landed” in St. Petersburg, we were inspired by Aelita, a silent Soviet film from the 1930s about space travel. With this in mind, we created our first planetary system: 16 small satellites orbiting around a glowing Saturn, which is easily recognizable by its three flickering rings.

Intergalatiс FM celebrated its 10th anniversary during this party, which was held on April 29th, 2018 at Sevkabel. In addition to the Intergalactic FM stage itself, we designed the decorations and architecture for all the party areas, as well as the main stage, for which the kinetic installation Coulisse was made.
