Guo Xiang, original mask

The main person of a broadcasting company of ViD - Vlad Listyev, long thought that to it to use as a logo. His wife worked in an east museum - she has prompted to Vlad to use for a logo the ceramic sculpture representing a head of the ancient Chinese philosopher by name of Guo Xiang. But workers of a museum have forbidden to use it as the sculpture was a death symbol. In ancient China there was an execution - people were beheaded and instead of the chopped off head similar sculptures laid down. To take with itself, and furthermore to show it on the TV was very bad idea. Then a mask have decided to recreate by means of graphic editors. The original mask, despite the deadly properties attributed to it, didn't look frightening. But that that has turned out at designers wasn't similar to the original. It was deathly pale color and was similar to a corpse. Not clearly, than Vlad thought but the turned out ugliness began to appear on country screens every day. In structure with psychodelic visual making and creepy music, it was to force enough shit bricks the whole people. After five years Vlad Listyev has been killed by the unknown person. People from a museum in which Vlad's wife worked, consider that in his death the ill-fated mask is guilty.
