Heith wanders through dreams in A Venus flytrap in the circus lodge
The 3rd and ultimate instalment of a video trilogy accompanying the Haunter Records founder’s new album for PAN, X, wheel, sees 3 radiant figures communing with the shadowy spirits of untamed nature in an intricate plant language.
On X, wheel, the new album from artist and Haunter Data founder Heith, the extremely texture of human consciousness is rendered as equally malleable and nebulous, something that shifts and warps as a result of the artist’s continued exploration of esoteric notions of actuality. His 1st album for PAN manifests a observe that draws on both the non secular and the inventive, folding in elements of psychedelia, psytrance, freak people, stoner metal, harsh sounds and early digital audio into a singular sonic language, inspired in equal components by biological sorts of plant conversation and the logic of dreams. This aim on alternate methods of interaction extends out of phonetic expression and into speculative inscription with Angel’s Hair, an alphabet of vegetal glyphs and mycological people devised by Heith in collaboration with the visual artist Pietro Agostoni. The alphabet shares its title with the folkloric substance siliceous cotton, a sticky gelatinous material of unfamiliar origin, claimed by believers and zealots to be made through UFO visitations and miraculous manifestations of the Virgin Mary, respectively. This weird language provides a person path into the world of X, wheel, and the nightmarish overgrown ecosystem of a single of the album’s most unsettling tracks, ‘A Venus Flytrap in the circus lodge.’
Adhering to 3 bioluminescent figures going all over a shadowy dreamscape, ‘A Venus Flytrap in the circus lodge’ embodies a environment in which the purely natural planet produces a violent, predatory reaction, a nod to the titular carnivorous plant. Probing the interplay between this deadly connotation, Venus as the Roman god of really like and beauty and as 1 of the closest planets to earth, Heith conjures a planet in which liminal realities are illuminated – the unattainable proximity of the planet evoking an unknowable room, the love deity gesturing towards new modes of faith. The denizens of the entire world of ‘A Venus Flytrap in the circus lodge’ emit an interior radiance, but this light does not travel upwards, transcendent of actual physical flesh, but as an alternative appears to be of the unkempt earth, glowing spores that propose these figures have sprung up from the quite soil and sand about which they now tread. Like the Angel’s Hair alphabet, these beings just take on a physical kind common nonetheless unknowable to us, moulded in the shapes of bodies, still smeared with a life-providing compound of a distinct nature, the purely natural entire world having back manage of its inhabitants with ghostly guardians, stalking their birthplace surging with all the guarantee of violence of the Venus Flytrap.
A Venus Flytrap in the circus lodge follows Your Factor (a spell of equality) and Dero as the 3rd component of a online video trilogy accompanying X, wheel. In Your Component, historic ritual exercise and cursive script are illuminated by laser light, a contemporary excavation of non secular tradition and myth. In Dero, unusual scrolling visuals give us glimpses of dystopian urban environments, occult graffiti and carnival pleasurable household imagery suggesting a transformed atmosphere of illusion and deceit. In the third and ultimate component, Heith reaches earlier the summoning ceremony and the disfiguring tips, delving further into a darker, additional pure room. The denizens of A Venus Flytrap in the circus lodge go with unknowable efficiency, a mystery only amplified by the concluding strands of Angel’s Hair, a new visual language for new realm of existence. Seasoned as a hazy cloud of shadow and loam, the desire reaches back again into the waking environment, casting bizarre shadows on the boundaries among flesh and earth.
‘A Venus Flytrap in the circus lodge’ is taken from X, wheel, which is out now on PAN. For extra info about Heith you can come across him on Instagram and at Haunter Information.
