The Jumblies – Camellia Nieh

31 Aug

The last elections day in Israel didn’t bring a lot of positive change on the political level, but in Mitzpe Ramon some good people got together  during that day to hang out outside to play music and practice their AcroYoga and slacklining skills, among other things. Camellia Nieh was there to shoot the occasions of the day, later editing them into this magnificent and really fun video, which I find very psychedelic.

And here is what Camellia had to say about the whole thing:

“I started making videos this year as a way of distilling my world, external and internal, for myself and for others, to record certain feelings, ideas, or experiences that were beautiful or interesting to me and to share them. They serve as a journal, sketchbook, and as letters to people I care about. This video was created from an afternoon of hanging out with friends in a small town in the Negev Desert on the day of Israel’s recent elections, exploring movement, music, balance, improvisation, and connection. I didn’t set out to make a psychedelic video, but apparently that’s how my world translates to others sometimes…”

What Is Freedom ? Chapter 1 “Yesod ” – “Our fReedom ” – New Rainbow Order

29 Jun

Guy Nastro goes around asking friends from the Israeli psytrance scene what freedom is for them, mixing their answers with a lot of kicking psytrance music, nature, juggling, Krishamurti and Terence Mckenna. The beautiful video transmission about the power of freedom is like a treatise, a prayer and a spiritual voyage, all at once. It calls upon us to realize our own freedom and comprises a powerful and inspiring document of a dissident searching for freedom, in a time when freedom is under attack.

This video is the first in a series of videos which will accompany Nastro on his travels around Europe looking for a land to buy. The last episode, Nastro says, should be the episode where he will already have his own land. He then intends to start a second video series which will focus on how to build a futuristic, psychedelic agricultural village.
