Pilar Zeta To Release Debut Album MOMENTS OF REALITY Tomorrow

Pilar Zeta will release her debut album Moments of Reality on Ultramajic Records October 5th, after years of working as a graphic artist, designer and creative director. Inspired by Japanese post-modern art from the 1980s and produced using synthesizers from the 1990s, the new age album of nine electronic pieces is ambient and cinematic with an off-world feeling. The album was produced with Jimmy Edgar (Warp Records, Vince Staples' "745") and you can hear the album's second single and new video for "Better Learning"here: https://youtu.be/LWysAa4o0tY.

Moments of Reality is an avant-garde concept album from the Portland-based Argentinian multimedia artist. The 3-D animated videos for the album's two singles--"Moments of Reality" and "Better Learning"--were created by Zeta & Edgar and used the same techniques the pair used to create the visuals forMiguel's The Ascension tour. The visuals for the album were influences by the Memphis Design movement.

She tells BlackBook of the video created with 3-D animation, similar to the animation she and partner Edgar used to create the graphics for Miguel's current The Ascension tour: "The song takes place within the imaginaryMoments of Reality world, where we initiate a binary sequence program to improve learning about different scents. This object is a special filter oil diffuser able to differentiate between thousands of different scents, as we believe the ascended human could communicate with subtle scents. The video showcases the first few pieces of the digital sculptures in choreography."

Fueled by a lifelong love of the paranormal, Zeta's metaphysical iconography and music exist in futuristic, surreal, and elegant spaces. Her visual and sonic works function as a form of practical magic in a machine-centric world, connecting different mediums through a singular, transcendent vision.
