Скачать или смотреть Eden Was Just Like This - Markus K

Note from Debora (video production and harmony).... We create our own reality: our world, and our relationships. The energy of our creation can be used to destroy a landscape. Or a heart. Or to create a pair of blossoming intertwined souls.

We created “Eden Was Just Like This” because of what we found one gloomy Thursday morning in usually sunny southern Spain when we ventured down a country road. We discovered, in what should be idyllic orange groves and farms, a mess. The detritus of human indifference: garbage bags, empty cans, construction debris, remnants of cardboard boxes.

And power lines. The triangular sign on the power station warns “alta tension: peligro de muerte” which means “high voltage: danger of death.” We thought it an apt symbol of human romantic relationships, where energy can destroy a heart . . . or create a pair of blossoming intertwined souls.

We decided to use “Eden Was Just Like This” (inspired by Harry Belafonte’s 1957 version) to create a juxtaposition of vision & expectation, myth, and reality. Thanks to Jonny Lindner from Germany for his visual metaphors of paradise.
