Bakblivv is a musical alias of Ernest Borowski, a queer intermedia artist, producer, and DJ from Poland.

With a constant drive for creative exploration in search of new languages to express the complexities of the world we inhabit, he employs queer and new materialist practices to challenge the capitalist narratives. Through his artistic practice, he explores the relationship between natureculture and technology, at the same time examining systemic practices of excluding minorities and looking for the possibility of queering the subject.

Bakblivv employs speculative methods in both sound creation and visual storytelling to envision a world where human and more-than-human beings coexist and share their knowledge and sensitivity. What can we learn from swamps? Is it possible to gain a greater understanding of anti-productivity from our own bodies through dancing, as opposed to solely reading theory? What do the machines hum to us? The search for answers beyond institutional academia and his own human experience becomes a method of artistic practice – a thought experiment full of carnality. Playing with various mediums, intensities and textures, he creates unsettling but seductive soundscapes and visual landscapes.

His latest album, "Piece of Stone," is a stunning embodiment of the possibilities of contemporary post-club music. Through mesmerizing glimpses of multilayered soundscapes, the album invites listeners on a sonic journey that imagines a world yet to come. Each track on the album is a vivid imagination of ecosystems of (im)possible agencies. Born from a place of utopian dream of being-together, the album serves as a non-linear narrative.

As we navigate through this unsettling musical landscape, we witness the symbolic act of creation, a structure ripped apart but alive, dense and fleshy. The tracks on the album build upon each other, creating a rich and complex soundscape that celebrates the power of non-verbal, emotional presence.

Throughout the album, the vocals are hauntingly eerie, at times sounding not-yet-human or not-human-anymore. This gives a sense of otherworldliness to the music, inviting listeners to leave behind the language we use to describe the reality we occupy and to be open to learning a new one.

As Bakblivv reminds us, that we need to create a new world inside the old one, where more-than-humans, queers, weirdos, and outcasts can call home. This album gives us a glimpse into what that world could be.
