I saw Steve perform these pieces in Chicago in 2024 and immediately asked if he had an interest in releasing the material asa DVDR.
The audio, which sweeps seamlessly between field recordings,
drones, and other electronic and electroacoustic elements is lovely, but the
video elements accentuate and elevate the audio and provides a layer of densely
personal and simultaneously opaque narrative to the performance.
When viewed sequentially, the archival home video, nature
imagery and themes, medical processes, what may (or may not) be found footage
from abandoned locations (think Priyapat), abstract geometric patterns, and
Stan Brakhage-esque painted film cels create an overarching voyeuristic,
eavesdropping puzzle of a narrative. Not unsurprisingly, the packaging for this release is also a
wonderfully personal puzzle of artifacts that I am excited for folks to dig
into and piece together.
