"SYNTH GOD is a feature-length documentary film project that explores the world of synthesizers and electronic music.Developed over fifty years ago, the synthesizer is essentially an electronic sound generator that can produce an infinite spectrum of sound colors. This one seminal idea – in its many incarnations and applications – has shaped modern music and culture and profoundly altered our contemporary soundscape.
SYNTH GOD is a search for the influence and power of the synthesizer in our everyday sound environment. The concept is not simply a contest of musicians or keyboardists. The gods of synth can manifest in the minds of artists, inventors, performers, composers and sound designers as well as inside transistors, vacuum tubes, lines of computer code, ringtones and video games.
Comprised of interviews, live concert footage, archive clips, animation, behind-the-scenes tours of small indie workshops and giant synthesizer factories, SYNTH GOD is set to film in the U.S., Japan and Europe under the direction of Hans Fjellestad, whose past films include MOOG (2004)."
