Joe’s new single “Near Death,” featuring a video I made for him, is out now.
The song references Joe and Izabella’s near-accident involving two semis and a shattered windshield while driving in Montana last year. Joe tasked me with trying to evoke the experience of a car crash, while for my part I tried to draw on the melted memoryscapes of Phil Solomon and Paul Clipson. I’ve been trying to work toward some kind of poetics of digital filmmaking focusing on the materiality (for lack of a better term) of the medium — I have no idea whether this piece fits into that sort of conception but maybe I’ll try to write something more in depth down the line.
The single, which includes two tracks that won’t be on the upcoming Grasshopper Whispers, is available below:
