Joel Ryan McDermott is an artist who uses auto-ethnography, ethnography, writing and film to explore individuality, connection and community.
McDermott is interested in how his films can play an active role in challenging cultural myth and ameliorating community division.

Inner Child - LYRICS Written & Composed by Jamie Irrepressible from the day that we’re born we dream from the day that we’re born we dream of what we’ll be, of what we’ll see, of who we’ll meet, of what we’ll be, of what we’ll see, of who we’ll love! of what will become of life! from the day that we’re born, we have a joy! To be our voice! To become true! or become like you! Become like you! And all the love I felt inside, when love is right when love is high, We give our whole whole love, It’s never wrong, when it comes undone. When there’s no hope, when there’s no hope, There’s always the light, the spark in night, the child - he - she - they - dream! They dream… When you feel tired, when you feel sad, when you’ve lost hope, they keep dreaming… They keep loving… When there’s no hope, When all is lost by the hands of men, by the hands of wicked women, in the child’s eyes there’s dreams In the child’s eyes as she dances, In the child’s eyes as he sings So take your… lack of hope, take your search for truth, take your heart with its breaks… to the answer of life. To Be like a child, dancing! dancing! Be like a child, dancing! dancing! Be like the child, dancing! dancing! loving endlessly, dreaming on, dreaming on Be like the child, dancing! dancing! Be like the child dancing! dancing! Be like the child, dancing! dancing! You’re there. When you’re tired tired of being the warrior, tired of being the worrier be like a child. Take your pain, take your heart heavy, and open up like a flower, and dance Take your heart, heavy, take your soul, so ready, to be nothing but the dance Dreaming on, dreaming on, It’ll set you free! oh it’ll Set you free! oh it’ll Set you free! oh it’ll Set You free! it’ll Set You free! oh it’ll Set you free! free, it’ll Set you free! Set You free! oh it’ll Set you free!

Ive waited for so long it was amazing to do this. Well done to the people who put this together 😊

[@Studycase3000]

I heard your songs as the audio for 3 vids today and was in tears, happy-sad but filled with Empathy, true empathy which is often confused with just sympathy...you have, I think become my favorite band as of this day. The voice of lead singer(I don't even know names yet) is heavenly. I know not what, if any beliefs you have but it is angelic and haunting. I LOVE now what I'm seeing as your actual videos (on your channel) even more...I guess I'm gushing over your music a bit like when you meet that person that makes your stomach get the butterflies feeling. Sorry if this is all a bit much but that is MY honesty, in what you've shared with me this day. I'm looking forward to getting to know your body of work over the coming weeks. Play on! Can't believe I'm just getting to hear you now. Happy holidays to you and yours.
