Description

A five-year journey into the heart of sonic dancing robot madness.

This is the story of the galaxy’s most unusual art project that started out as a comic book, evolved into electronic music, animation, dancing robots, and then back into a comic book with a companion soundtrack on vinyl!

Produced, directed, and edited by filmmaker and artist Mark Bussler, this engaging and entertaining documentary is the story of artistic experimentation across genres.

Bussler captured footage over a five-year period documenting his trials, errors, and audio exploration as Omega Ronin grew from a retro-themed space manga into a synthwave music band after a social media music experiment turned into sonic chaos. After taking inspiration from 1980s read-along adventures, Bussler completed the book project after a half-decade by composing a soundtrack to read along with the graphic novel.
