The story of Eric & Ruth Perez

Father and daughter - together ‘til the last dance.
Kan presents this moving project, dedicated to the late Eric and Ruth Peretz who were murdered at the Nova Festival.
The project is almost entirely made with AI animation.
We had the honour to edit ‘The Surgeon’ as soundtrack.
In memory of Eric and Ruth.

I've listened to IM for many years. I have so much respect for how you have paid tribute to the memory of these beautiful people. Thank you for sharing this video.

[@Mars-l9b]

This is so sad. I just can't understand how people can be so cruel. :(

[@virajkhatri7574]

they are wasps... and they are in this comment section calling this "fake".

[@MichaelParker42]

as a father of a young daughter myself, this is so absolutely heartbreaking

[@virajkhatri7574]

imagine if something happened to her... and the world says that it is propaganda. And the world points to you calling you the enemy. That is why I support Israel 100%, because the world is wrong and full of wasps

[@SailorIvo]

We, the offspring's of 90's and 2000's, have been watching the propaganda machines all around the world doing their job for some time. Yet we never understood why the hatred was preferred over love and union. Do not lose hope, our time will come and we will grow like the mushrooms over this rotten world. We will make things count by being better versions of what we endured through. Always remember, each individual is unique in their own way so respect them as you expect from others to you. Much love from Turkey.

As a father of three daughters, this cuts so deep. To kill a child with cerebral palsy and her father in cold blood is pure evil. And the sickos call this “resistance.” Disgusting. May their memories be a blessing. And their murderers brought to justice. עם ישראל חי

[@FarmerDrew]

Best friend of my high school years was murdered for speaking his opinion. Shot and stuffed in a trunk. I channeled the sadness and anger into music. Thank you. IM helped me in those years. Great to see you bringing awareness and bringing new music.

[@markdegroot5599]

It's sad how a number of comments seem to focus, on the AI images, rather than the beautiful and heartbreaking story. "Hire a real artist" is what they say... "A real artist" is a team... It's a director, actors, camera crew, editing, sound, etc... Huge costs. This story wouldn't have been published here if it wasn't for AI. This story is worth spreading the way it is now able to do. Take your wins... Lose the negativity!

[@timomager2502]

​@@lever1209 hi mate. sorry for that missunderstanding, just saw your post now. Boom Festial is a super lovely festival in portugal. i was sitting right next to the floor on the back site and Ruth was between the shop line and the floor sitting in her wheelchair turning in circles and seemed to be enjoying life to the fullest. I didnt know her or her name, I saw Eric as well. Didnt know him ether. i reconized them later on the photos and videos from 7th oct and remembered that moment. Won't forget it so they can live further in my memories. I hope, both of them riding together some galactic shootingstar through the universe and I wish all of the family and friends all the best.

[@apexofhumanity]

Heartbreaking story. I'm really glad that the father and daughter got to enjoy their time together as much as they did. To those complaining about AI. You really expect people to hire artists for projects they aren't going to make money on? If they hadn't used AI, this would have been a still photograph with a narrator unless they found an artist to do it for free. Not to mention the number of musicians that the computers Infected Mushroom uses to make their music replaced. Are they supposed to Make analog only music because of that. Obviously you don't have a problem with electronic music if you're an IM fan. What's the difference?

How about hiring real artists for the task instead of promoting garbage technologies ? First the NFTs crap then this, ain't supporting this.

[@BoxBoxBoxGaming]

yeah Infected Mushroom have seriously changed, I'm unsubscribing after being a fan for more than 20 years.

[@markdegroot5599]

Sounds like you guys think an actual artist is for free? Sorry folks, it isn't. And musicians that are not being played on commercial radio, generally aren't rich either. This story is worth spreading. AI is making it possible at a budget.

[@dBO123]

If it makes any difference, they just provided the music.. It wasn't their project

[@Adialeoff]

@@dBO123 They've been promoting NFT's and IA art for years now, first with the Shroomez EP and NFT tracks and with IA art on their Twitter & KZbin since months now, this is not their first time doing this.

@@markdegroot5599 This group is one of the most successful and iconic psytrance artists around the globe doing World Tours with a studio in Los Angeles, they CLEARLY have the budget to hire proper artists like they've always been doing before. This is just a matter of personal and subjective preference, not a matter of fundings.

what about 40,000 innocent civilians who were killed by israel?

[@mattekudasairo3057]

Неинтересно.

[@KoreanBackdash]

Sad story, however, many people died on this day. Still, it's beyond me why there was a party to a, well, such a hot zone in general where any attack could happen so easily at any time. Seems pretty careless to me. A more centralized location would have been a better choice and a lot of deaths could have been avoided.

[@goldstarlazerbeam8562]

Beyon small squads of infiltrating terrorists that were usually stpooed at the border, no event like the Hanas mass attack had ever happened before in the Gaza Envelope area. Beyond the rockets from the Gaza Strip, this is actually a low crime area and was quite safe for runners, hikers, bikers, and ravers.

Was it really necessary to use ai to illustrate this? Please just hire an actual artist.

[@theemonegro]

They did hire actual artists numbnuts. In fact it took more brain power to do what they did then any of the cgi anime nowadays especially what dragon ball has become. That whole American cartoon network style cgi anime is trash. They actually interviewed the person then they hired 2 people who work as musicians and graphic designers for infected mushroom to make this masterpiece. Go back to watching the trashiest style animation based off the most crude Maga ever, yes I can see by your comment that to you one piece is the father of Shonen anime
