Space Ludens

Launch Film

Ludens (derived from Latin “ludo”, meaning “to play”), a fictional race who explores uncharted ground in space, is the mascot of the Japanese game studio, Kojima Productions, who sees “play as the fundamental source of creativity and innovation”. Hong Kong-based independent watchmaker Anicorn has partnered with Yoji Shinkawa, the art director of Kojima Productions, to launch a limited watch collection that features motifs from the space armour of Ludens (the “EVA Creative Suit”), as well as the official NASA logo, which bridges the fictional and the real practices with their explorative spirits—the edition serves as a wearable embodiment of the company’s mascot and their philosophy of play.

The launch film, produced at Morning Giants Studio, embarks viewers on a space expedition, realising the adventurous nature of Ludens. Intricate animated details of the timepiece were showcased throughout the journey.
