Signal Boost: Announcing the Winners of the Peakflow Studios Launch Competition
To mark the launch of Peakflow Studios, we wanted to begin by connecting with our local and online communities. Thank you to every artist, entrepreneur, and business owner who entered our competition.
We are proud that this initiative is supported using public funding by Arts Council England. This enabled us to offer meaningful prizes and amplify the work of independent businesses and creators from the very beginning. The calibre of entries was exceptional, serving as a powerful reminder of the incredible work being done.
After a tough selection process, we are thrilled to announce the results.
Grand Prize Winner
Congratulations to Emma Chow Atelier.
We were captivated by her work in regenerative design, creating ethical botanical art from materials like dead-stock silk and dyes made from fallen flowers gathered in East Sussex. Her process feels both timeless and deeply innovative, and embodies the kind of creative energy we are passionate about amplifying.
She will receive a pro-bono, bespoke promotional video, crafted by Peakflow Studios.

In Process: Visualising an Analog Mind
One of the most exciting projects currently in development at the studio is the music video for Asbest the Moor King's track, 'Analog Mind in a Digital World.' For this project, we're incorporating some new AI tools into our visual storytelling approach. This post is the first in a series that will offer a look inside the creative process, starting with the initial visual brainstorming.
The track's theme of an individual navigating a hyper-digital, often isolating landscape is a powerful starting point. We're exploring concepts that blend portraiture with vast, technologically dense environments to capture this feeling of introspection amidst overwhelming information.
Here's a look at some of the early visual concepts and mood board explorations.
This is just the beginning of the journey. Stay tuned for more updates as we move from concept to motion.
