Submarine (Extended) is a mature oeuvre of electronic producer Mervin Wong, extending out of an earlier project Entity under his former pseudonym, Planeswalker. It explores the dramaturgy of world-building that began from a sonic perspective, that eventually branched out into an immersive experience captured by moving image, that was built in conjunction with various creatives.
The artist-producer speaks of carrying on the life-span of his works: “I am only channeling energies and experiences into this reality. It just happens to take the form of the piece, but even that is always in a state of flux. I relate to my past works, they grow and evolve with me. It is exciting to see how the reality of Submarine is interpreted and realised in a cohesive manner where both my vision within the music and the interpretation with collaborators is fused to create the piece.”
Facilitated by multidisciplinary collaboration, the music video also seeks to carve out a space of interaction and exploration, where the observer and listener can be transported across cosmic panoramas - journeying through a sequence of respite and relief, traversing with inspiration and wonder.
The familiarity of this inquisitive fascination having been inspired by a formative childhood memory, of idle moments spent wading underwater after swimming lessons - an infinite sensation of freedom and flow - surrounded by an endless blue.
“I am deeply affected by moments in my childhood, the seemingly uncolored experience during weekly swimming lessons where I came into contact with water, the sensations where you submerge into a different world, cold and unknown, but vast and curious. I remember the exact moment of looking up from beneath, where the clouds opened and light penetrated the surface of the water, particularly struck by this experience in a simple, but profound manner.” – Mervin Wong
