2005年の2ndアルバムがリマスターで再発。
タイトルはcinema(映画)とmice(ネズミ)を組み合わせた造語。古びた映画館で床に落ちた食べ物を齧りながら映画を見るネズミを意味している。このアルバムは、そこで上映されている14の短編映画集である。
ネズミたちが鑑賞する人間の世界。そこでは言葉はあまり意味を持たない。ここにあるのは、物語の断片的なイメージであり、残りはリスナーの想像力に委ねられている。このゆったりとした時間の流れる短編集に於いて、antennasiaは想像するという形で、リスナーに作品への参加を呼びかけている。

Originally released in 2005, antennasia’s 2nd album “Cinemice” has been remastered and reissued. The title is a combination of the words "cinema" and "mice", meaning a mouse watching films in an old cinema theatre, chomping on food that has fallen to the floor. This album is a collection of 14 short films that are shown there.
This is the human world as seen by the rats and words don't mean much here. What we have here are fragmentary images of fourteen stories, the rest of which is left to the imagination of the listener. In this slow-moving collection of short stories, antennasia invites the listener to participate in the form of imagination.
