Russian project Fornax was founded in March 2006 by Nullklever. The project started from experiments with noise and ambient music. Later, rhythmical experiments were added to the wide stylistical palette of the project. The name "Fornax" means southern constellation which was first introduced by Nicolas Louis De Lacaille under the name "Fornax Chemica" (latin for "Chemical Furnace"), representing a small solid-fuel heater formerly used for heating chemical experiments. The concept foundation of the music is space in all of its representations: cosmonautics of the past, present and future, the universe as a form of life, aliens and distant worlds, as well as hi-tech, anomalous effects, supernatural capabilities, life after death, cyberpunk representation of the future, sci-fi, futurism, etc.
