Today’s video is an art extravaganza I made from a rehearsal in my practice space. I got some new film editing software, and as part of learning to use it, I created this artful masterpiece. Features: Jellyfish, Grimaces, Walking through the desert with a beard. Very Jim Morrison there. Keep reading for more info on the images et cetera…

The spot of the desert footage is a really cool place in Death Valley National Park. If you drive a few hours up an amazingly bumpy road (even with four wheel drive its sketch), you end up at a place called “The Racetrack”, past Teakettle Junction.
The Racetrack is a dried lake bed, which are, naturally some of the flattest surfaces on earth. In some way, however, to many a mystery, no scientific explanation has been proven, (to my knowledge), a few of the rocks and boulders are sliding across the surface, leaving trails behind them. When you are out there in the vastness of it all, and you realize how dry and desolate it is, it does seem a magickal place.
