« Drunk Lament » music video for Andreas Juhani snipped ✨🚋

In this novel about an astronomer and his mother (inspired by his own biography) Kepler tried to advance a new worldview by speaking to his readers’ imagination: what would our world look like if seen from the Moon?

Impression from THE FATZER SOLDIER'S TALE, Premiered in Musiikkitalo, Helsinki, October 17, 2022

Text and Stage Direction Aleksi Barrière @aleksibarriere.bsky.social
Actor Thomas Kellner
Violin: Aliisa Neige Barrière
Accordion: Janne Valkeajoki
Clarinet: Lauri Sallinen

But when they discover the selfish motives of their leader, the anarchist Fatzer, the deserters realize that there is not much reason in history..."

"In the spring of 1917, four German soldiers learn that a revolution has broken out in Russia and decide to desert and go into hiding until the “Inevitable Revolution” spreads across Europe—how could it not, since the soldiers at the front and the workers in the factories all want the war to end?

Three years ago, the music theatre piece THE FATZER SOLDIER’S TALE premiered in Musiikkitalo, Helsinki! :')

This is one of the animated collages for the visuals on stage that I created by digging through German World War 1 propaganda, mixing it with images documenting the destruction.

“I order one more round but drinking / doesn’t make it better.”

DRUNK LAMENT is a song on Andreas’ latest album APRIL, go listen to it!

IT’S OUT! We are finally releasing the music video DRUNK LAMENT, on a song by Andreas Juhani !

It’s been a lot of fun animating this two-minute music video in stop motion, entirely from hand-colored and cut-out video prints, as a kaleidoscopic (roller) coaster through an intoxicated mind.

Thanks so much for your interest! FYI the app is NOT available yet. I hope to start an open Testflight beta next week and will post the invite here.
