Kim spent too long learning 3D animation to make this little promo video– something absolutely no one needed her to do. Enjoy!

Password 1234 is the tech world’s most highly anticipated and mind-blowing event of the century. It’s what Code Panic Magazine’s Senior Editor Hej Arnhold is calling “I guess it’s revolutionary, yeah, but at what cost? The more I think about it, this shouldn’t be happening.”

For one night only, we invite you to hack into reality for a revolutionary sudo experience unlike any other. Come witness two powerhouse CEOs and self-proclaimed geniuses, Kim & Aliya, bravely introduce a new mobile app that solves everyday problems, blows your mind, and changes your life whether you like it or not unfortunately. Prepare to meet a technology so intelligent that it overtakes the show and must be violently terminated. As an audience member, you agree to bear the extraordinary privilege of actually downloading and interacting with a functional iOS app. What are you waiting for? The show to start? Ok…
