She's bringing an anthology, 120-page comic version of their album Superposition to fans around the world via her zoop.gg crowdfunding project.
Ven and the rest of the band blend music and visual storytelling into a singular, immersive aesthetic. The group's work has always drawn on comic and manga influences, shaping their visuals, stage design, and narrative-driven projects. Here's how the book is described: "Superposition was the band's first and only album, and this anthology gives its themes a second life through visual storytelling. Rather than focusing only on loss, the project is about growth, memory, and the strange, beautiful process of becoming someone new after everything changes. Supporting this campaign helps turn the music into something tangible and lasting—a book that carries those emotions forward." We talk about the band, including how it was formed, how the album was brought together, and what Ven is looking forward to doing in the months and years ahead. You can support Ven and this book by going to this link, and this crowdfunder will conclude on or around Thursday, April 30. Don't miss this fascinating conversation exploring the relationship between comic books and music!
