Sky Chess

Animation of the classic “Imortal Game“ played in Londen in 1851 between Adolf Anderson (white), and Lionel Adalbert Bagration Felix Kieseritsky (black). All of those names didn’t help Lionel, as he managed to lose while ahead by a queen and 2 rooks! I found this game at and you can see the game in more traditional format here: I used Vue 7 Infinite for the animation, and composed the music around the video. The board seems to be floating in the sky, but is actually laying on an infinite sheet of colored metal, which reflects the sky.
