Good Rester "Dark"
Long form music video / short film for Good Rester. Music and Film produced & edited by Brian Siskind. "Good Rester - Dark" is an abstract film that uses made and found post-war footage, combined with original score and field recordings, to weave a sensory narrative - across the Tarot and the imminent cycle of life and death. The film, in three movements, uses found/public domain footage of post-war Germany and New York City, as well as footage shot by Siskind, to take the viewer on a journey through the cycle of life and death. Field Recordings made by Siskind from Rome, Pompeii, London, Nice, Nashville, New York and other locations are characters in the film that guide the narrative. Original music recorded, produced, and performed by Siskind (and collaborators) under the name "Good Rester" provide the only human voice, and is the basis for the progression through the cycle. This 11 minute black and white abstract and sonically rich film pushes toward renewal - transcendence.
