CVMutants Behind It All
Carousel studio (NEW BRANCH)
A reckless crew of art-bandits, cooked up solely to poke, prod and tease the droopy petals of human curiosity.
We haunted Russia from 2008 to 2022, sneaking straight into the inner kid curled up somewhere inside the leathery, slow-beating shell of the average grown-up dinosaur.
Our agenda was simple: ignite rogue synapses into existence using tech-toys, off-script behavior, and a cheerful disrespect for whatever passes as “normal”.
Our handmade equipment? Half-magic, half-nonsense elasticity rigs for rebooting your sense of youth.
We were brave, naive, and stubborn enough to believe kids should run the universe.
Armed with nothing but our toy-like, phantasmagoric, borderline-delirious art-contraptions, we managed to “upgrade” exactly 0.000014% of Earth’s population.
Our impact is so gloriously tiny and cosmically irrelevant that, yeah, everyone forgot about it already.
This website is our glitch-sheet history:
a pocket-sized chronicle, a dusty memory box, a pile of stories fermenting peacefully in the attic gloom.
