A short film made to the track Surfing Dreams & Chaos, the second piece from the Soundzero album, has been uploaded on Vimeo†(best option) and YouTube. The film was produced, edited and directed by Philip Clemo and shot on full HD on location in Iceland, as part of the same production for†the film ‘The Air Holds Still On My Breath’. Both films will be featured on this website soon.
Work has now been completed on the film The Air Holds Still On My Breath – The Iceland Journey. Running at just under 42 mins it moves through seven episodes in the journey of life – Orientation, Exhilaration, Isolation, Consolidation, Expansion, Transformation and an un-named final section. The film is an opportunity to ‘let go of the map’, drop a little deeper and see things with a new perspective. Watch out for more updates soon including information about downloads.
The album Soundzero, the second from an early body of work with composer and violinist Ysanne Spevack, will be available for the first time in the UK from March 23 and the US from April 6. More information including purchase links soon.
The Rooms will receive its US release on April 6.
The Air Holds Still On My Breath – The Iceland Journey, a 50 minute full high-definition video to compositions from The Rooms, shot in Iceland in Summer 2008, is currently in post-production. The film, a collection of abstract and ambiguous mood paintings, uses the hugely diverse Icelandic landscape as a metaphor for different states of being, echoing the journeys taken on the album. The project was shot using specialist camera technology to capture extreme slow motion details of geothermal activity and waterfalls, and from the air using an ultra-smooth gyro-stabilised camera mounted on a helicopter.
The Rooms will be released†on October 20, 2008. Please watch for updates and reviews soon.
