This is more than a music video. It's a cry for connection in a world that has forgotten how to look up.
Built during a mental health crisis — when screens became the wall between two people who once knew each other. When Harley helmets and Jeep keys became trophies of distraction instead of vehicles toward love. When the only thing more addictive than the phone in your hand is the person you're ignoring with it.
This project was therapy. This project was survival. This project was building something beautiful out of the pain of feeling invisible to someone sitting right next to you.
If you've ever felt unseen — scrolling next to someone who doesn't look up — this is for you.
You are not alone. Stay. Look up. Reach out.
This project was created during a period of severe mental duress. The creative process — writing, visualizing, building, rendering — served as both an outlet and a lifeline. Art heals. Creation gives purpose when everything else feels like noise.

This project was built with $0.00 using free tools — but the human behind it is real, and currently navigating mental health challenges while building a future through code and creativity.

"LIKE ME IN 16K" is a story about two people — partners — drifting apart in the digital age. One reaches for connection. The other is lost in an endless scroll, surrounded by corporate toys: helmets they never wear, keys they never turn, gadgets they never open.
The music video moves through cold digital isolation toward warm human reconnection:
- Crystal Dreams — A whisper in Russian. "Где же ты, мой друг, придй." (Where are you, my friend, come to me.) A person alone, lit only by phone glow.
- Corporate Toys — The partner, surrounded by unused things, moving like a ghost. A HUD reads "UPGRADE AVAILABLE" — always upgrading, never present.
- Frozen Connection — A hand reaches out. A Spanish whisper: "corazón… why you always running…" The partner doesn't look up. The room glitches.
- Neon Bounce — The chorus drops. Rooftop. City lights like 16K pixels. Drill bounce in the camera. Freedom. But alone.
- Real World vs Screen World — Warm colors vs cold blues. A Jeep with the engine running. Someone scrolling instead of driving. Life happening outside the screen.
- Break the Interface — A tunnel of floating holographic UI. Each swipe dissolves a barrier. The partner appears at the end. Blurry. Getting closer.
- Return to Reality — Sunrise. Neon fades to gold. Harleys and Jeeps left behind. Both walk toward each other. The Russian line echoes again.
- Stay With Me — Hands touch. The phone falls. The screen cracks. Fade to black. "Quédate aquí… stay with me."
The message: Put down the screen. The person next to you is reaching out. Don't let the crack be in your relationship instead of your phone.

Want to create your own AI music video? Here's a gentle guide to the tools and the mindset — no secrets, just the path.
| Step | Tool | What It Does | Where |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Write the concept | Your vision, scene-by-scene | Pen & paper or your AI assistant |
| 2 | Generate keyframes | Turn text prompts into cinematic still images | FLUX 2 or any text-to-image AI |
| 3 | Animate the stills | Convert images to short video clips with motion | Wan2.2 I2V on Hugging Face Spaces |
| 4 | Fallback motion | If the AI video API rate-limits you, use Ken Burns zoom/pan | ffmpeg zoompan filter |
| 5 | Generate the soundtrack | Create music that matches your emotional arc | Suno AI |
| 6 | Stitch it together | Concatenate clips, add fades, mux audio | ffmpeg |
| 7 | Automate everything | Orchestrate the whole pipeline end-to-end | Hermes Agent by Nous Research |
- Start with the story — Every frame should serve the emotion, not the other way around
- Use free tools aggressively — Hugging Face Spaces, FAL.ai, ffmpeg, Suno. $0 is a feature, not a limitation
- When GPU quotas hit, pivot — Ken Burns effects look great when the AI can't render
- Write it all down — Scripts in the repo so others can reproduce and remix
- Your pain is your art — This whole project was built during a mental health crisis. The best creative work often comes from the hardest places
- Python 3.11+
- ffmpeg (for video stitching)
- An AI assistant (Hermes, or any coding agent)
- Internet access (for HF Spaces, FAL, Suno)
- A story to tell
Read through these to see exactly how it works:
final_stitch.py— Normalize + concat clips with fade in/outken_burns.py— Generate zoom/pan motion on still imagesmux_audio.py— Layer soundtrack onto videostitch.py— Basic clip concatenation
💡 The hardest part isn't the code — it's the vision. Anyone can run ffmpeg. Not everyone can write "Где же ты, мой друг, придй" and mean it.
This project was built with Hermes Agent by Nous Research — an AI assistant that automated the entire pipeline from concept to GitHub. Every tool used was free. Every dollar saved was a dollar earned.
Special thanks to:
- The open-source community behind Wan2.2 and FLUX
- Hugging Face for providing free GPU access
- FAL.ai for the FLUX 2 model
- Suno for making music creation accessible
- Everyone who creates free tools that make art possible
