Hot Steam III Film Festival

Posted on by elizabethjoankelly in news

My music video for “Human Research Roadmap” is part of the Hot Steam III film festival. From their website, “HOT STEAM 03 is an initiative that aims to marry topics in the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math (STEAM) through communal listening, watching, and learning. It is a Cambridge Community Television production that brings international video artworks to the city of Cambridge and beyond.”

Episodes premiere every Tuesday night in September on Cambridge Community Television‘s Channel 8 and on the Hot Steam website at 7pm EST. My video will be in Episode 5, “Crowd Control,” which premieres September 29 , plus all five episodes will also screen that night at Starlight Square in Cambridge, Massachusetts at 7pm EST.

Episode 1 is available now, and I’m honored to be included in such an original and timely body of work.

August Recommendation on MacroParentheticals

Posted on by elizabethjoankelly in news

Author Tyler Weaver of Parenthetical Recluse, a fascinating blog about music, movies, literature, running, Ohio election signage, and so much more, has asked me to contribute a monthly recommendation (probably, mostly, music, but maybe other stuff?) for his MacroParentheticals newsletter. The newsletter comes out every Sunday and is chock full of Tyler’s own current media consumption, musings, “fascinations, perspirations, and whatever else comes to mind,” plus pictures of Tyler’s adorable dogs. Here was my recommendation for August:

This month I recommend an album that came out last year but is new to me, Wizard Apprentice’s Dig A Pit. Wizard Apprentice is Tieraney Carter, and the first thing that seduced me about this album was her chillingly beautiful voice. But a deeper listen unveils the intricacy of the stunning instrumental accompaniment: sparse, yet perfectly arranged to highlight and heighten the vocals. And I love a good drone, which this album has plenty of. From the Bandcamp description:

“Dig a Pit is an autobiography based on a personal experience of intimate partner violence. It focuses on the psychologically damaging impact of narcissistic abuse, an elusive form of emotional abuse rooted in manipulation, control, well-concealed cruelty, and humiliation. Each song examines different stages of recovery, including the process of healing from gaslighting, trauma bonding, and victimization to practices of self-protection and honoring anger.”

More from Wizard Apprentice:

Signup for the newsletters, and you won’t regret it. I’ve heard much wonderful new music thanks to Tyler’s discerning ear, and you certainly will too. Next month I’ll be talking about some of my favorite podcasts/radio shows!
