An integrated audio visual work of up-and-coming artist GEM, entirely surrounded by the work of The Divine Comedy’s Inferno, (Dante Alighieri, c. 1350) In collaboration with notable producer, Luke Aymon and Icarus Moth, composer and guitarist Joe Asprea, and other New York artists and producers.

Sounds off the work integrate a multitude of styles and genres, ranging from harsh metallic drums, to medieval musical modes and scales, and operatic vocals that float atop differentiated chaos.
