Alaska (2020)

Alaska named after one of the many home movies used in the project is an autobiography unlike any other Through the use of intuitive editing music image overlays and public domain cartoons Alaska demonstrates the complicated wonderful and sometimes terrifying force childhood trauma can have on your life Over the course of 13 original tracks as well as humorous interstitials Josh Deane explores moments of freedom shame the absurd horror of growing up in an evangelical cult and the loneliness of losing a sister Instead of utilizing narrative Alaska uses dream logic and imagery to create a compelling and at times overwhelming emotional experience
