RESURRECT DEAD ON PLANET JUPiTER

One Who is Not Dead

Hello loyal readership. On the off chance that you read this site and you don’t know me personally, I’ve been gone because it’s been my birthday. As an unrepentant narcissist, I chose to celebrate the occasion of my birth by taking a few days off from all things normally scheduled.

But anyway, the word art, or artist is discussed way, way too much. The discussion is incredibly dull and about as pointless as anything I can think of. Art is art, and life is art and nothing is art and everything is. If I had my way, the word would be deleted from the language and people could stop talking about it and getting on with experiencing and creating it.

With all that said there are a few people who – for lack of a better term – I’d call artists. Justin Duerr is one of them. Justin was recently assaulted randomly on the street and injured pretty badly. Everything about it is sad. Here’s his first creative response. (copied and pasted from a myspace bulletin) If you don’t understand some of the terms in the description, by all means, google them.

Just the first in what I’m sure will be an avalanche of little creative projects born of being at home/resting up for a few days.

This is a video for my solo project, currently incarnate as THE AURIC DOVES OF AVALON.

This video features a cellular automata program written by my father.

Basically it’s that, and shot of a bunch of my large posters collected together, plus a few incidental pieces.

It’s a ceremonial video to help activate healing, peace on the streets, and positive life-force.

The music features samples from EVP records, shortwave, bass, and harmonium.

Filmed at home, and my first real attempt at “editing” video….. enjoy!
