Creating Itzama

"Itzama" is a track I made after deciding on a method in my artistic research practice. In that practice, the goal is to find "what music comes from fusing (my own) artistic identities (or "roles"; exact wording TBA). After creating the lyrics and the music, and after recording, mixing and mastering, I discovered lots of aspects which then gave ideas for a music video. <br> This video in turn needs to be displayed, which gave me a lot if ideas on how to do that. So, because of the concept of stone upon stone, I now have an installation, titled: Itzama - Spirit of rain

In That Dark Night, music video

This video has since its release won some awards, been shown around the world, sometimes as part of the winners section, sometimes as part of the "refused" section (like in Grimstad, Norway). <br><br> The point of this video was to make something more from that trembling emotion inherent in the track, and to further emphasize on that. I think it worked.
