Video: Biarchy, “Electric” (film by Jordan Kerfeld)
This week, my Wayward Son column in The Pitch focuses on Biarchy, the new project from KC music veterans Brad Hodgson and Mike Myers. The two former members of In the Pines have released a digital album, Strength In Numbers, and are asking filmmakers — locally and around the globe — to contribute visual material to go along with their home-crafted sounds.
I won’t repeat any more of what I said in the column; I just wanted to share one of those videos — the best, in my opinion.
The dining-room scene in Jordan Kerfeld‘s short for Biarchy’s “Electric” was filmed in Kerfeld’s parents’ suburban Kansas City house and stars Kerfeld’s sister Alyssa as the shades-sporting cereal eater. While those sound like fairly simple elements, the finished product is strangely transporting.
Check it out below, and visit Biarchy’s Vimeo page for more from Kerfeld and (a hopefully growing list of) others.
