Ed Morris directs a haunting promo for Everything Is Recorded, featuring Mary In The Junkyard's Clari Freeman-Taylor.The video for Swamp Dream #3 transports viewers to a desolate, otherworldly landscape where the line between music and emotion blurs. The video follows a stoic figure - vocalist Clari Freeman-Taylor - trudging through a muddy dirt track in the middle of a vast, barren field, carrying a small 1980s television.On the TV screen, a vibrant, expressive version of Clari’s face sings, juxtaposing her impassive expression as she presses forward. Connected to a long extension cable, the TV mirrors the tension in the track as the cord stretches to its breaking point.The textural, abstract aesthetic has hints of expressionism and experimental cinema, which creates an anachronistic, pensive atmosphere. Freeman-Taylor's performance is suitably stoic, and the inclusion of two versions of her - the TV and 'real life' ones - adds an intriguing visual hook. Lovely work.
