Kodiak Station by Reiziger produced by Swoon featuring Ephemeral Rift [not ASMR]

[Not ASMR]. This is a music video by Swoon for the song ’Kodiak Station’ by Reiziger from their album ’Kodiak Station’ (Birch&Broom/Pias - Red Plane Records) Clips from my videos as follows: Lampshade: Bag Thing: Whispering Zombie: The Cleansing: Music: Reiziger - Concept, editing: Swoon - Footage: Ephemeral Rift About this video: I was contacted by Swoon around the middle of 2012 as he was interested in using some of my imagery for one of his video poems. I was more than willing to oblige once I saw a sample of what he planned on doing, and after looking further into his vast catalog of amazing work, I was very happy I did, and even more fortunate and honored that he reached out to me, of all people, in the first place. I was then contacted again towards the latter part of the year, and this is the 2nd video he created using more imagery from my various videos. We are now looking to do a real collaboration, so we’ll see where things go from here. About Swoon Swoon lives in Mechelen (Belgium). He has produced over 60 video poems and collaborated with various writers in different languages. His video poems and Shorts were shown at international Festivals. Like all good art, the work of Swoon transports us to a state. It is a state of attention and reverie at the same time, where the artist shares with us his own intense experience of the moment, and then sends us each on our own inner investigations. Meditations on Nature, Time, Art, the human condition, and the spiritual cost of modernity - these are some of the dizzy heights that Swoon’s audiovisual essays explore.“Longing,“ as Heidegger defines it, “is the agony of the nearness of the distant“. Something of this delicious torment informs the dense visual and sonic tapestries found in these stills and videos. In his miniatures paintings and films, he piles layer upon layer of information and sensation --ghostly voices and pathos, echoing memory’s dizzy playground, alongside snatches of half-forgotten dreams, or lives.“ About Reiziger (from their website ) “We could rant about their history hailing from the early 90’s post hardcore band Kosjer D., or recently Confuse The Cat & Bronze. Their stories across Europe or about their jobs in the social sector and their deal with Stickman Records ... but no ... let’s try to focus on their impact on the listener by means of a couple of statements. Reiziger touches your emotion. Easily switching from subdued melancholy to youthful enthusiasm, from restrained contemplation to razor-sharp paroxysms of anger, shifting from feather-light poptunes to a massive dead swing sound but nonetheless always keeping their specific touch. Reiziger is a band. No exasperating individualism, no freaky soloing, the whole is much more than the sum of 4 individuals. Reiziger is beyond a band. Managing to combine escapism with harsh realism! Reiziger is Reiziger. Unique in sound, unique in word, unique in style.“ Social stuff: Facebook Page: Cthulhu Cult: Professor Clemmons: Tinfoil Hat Society: Twitter:
