Hello. We're currently working on the next entry in The Zium series, and it's going very well. Perhaps we will start showing some work-in-progress glimpses occasionally. Here is one from our new gallery overworld, designed and art directed by the wickedly talented @jpotterfield.bsky.social
I received my personal copy of The Zium Digest direct from Italy. Thank you again to @mlupetti.upandpunch.red for all your help in making the physical version a reality. As well as everyone involved in every bit of it.
If you're going to A Maze Berlin, The Zium Digest will be available to purchase exclusively at the festival! (and later at the A Maze Shop!) Thank you @amazefest.bsky.social and @thorstenstorno.bsky.social for your hand and book modelling. Have a great festival everyone!

@jpotterfield.bsky.social also made a poster for The Zium Digest, which in the back pages has some cameos from other collectives, and this was ours for The Zium. The image in this is the mountain from the new Zium from some early art tests. Adore this piece of art. Thank you, Jacob!

Post a picture you took (no description) to bring some zen to the timeline
This place, Tower of the Sun, and Tarō Okamoto have been a deep inspiration for many years, and a direct inspiration for The Zium Exposition. Please visit Expo '70 Commemorative Park in Osaka if you ever get the chance.
Tower of the Sun, designed by the visionary Tarō Okamoto for Expo '70 Osaka, is a magnificent sight to behold, and be in the presence of. The surrounding gardens are peaceful and beautiful, and in every season. A wonderful way to spend a day. Autumn is arriving at the park, currently.
A pilgrimage to Tower of the Sun today. As I was leaving, a nice volunteer approached with a form asking how to "attract more international visitors" to the park. I told her we made a video game inspired by Tower of the Sun... I still filled in the form, but hopefully The Zium Exposition helps.
