Myles O'Reilly, Diamuid Mac Gloinn and Gareth Quinn Redmond :: Point of Disgust

Watch my current films on / mylesoreilly
The song 'Point of Disgust' was written the late Mimi Parker and first recorded by the band Low, a version of which I released on my latest LP 'Cocooning Heart'. mylesoreilly.b... Here I've enlisted the help of Diramuid Mac Gloin (Ye Vagabonds) and ambient meastro Gareth Quinn Redmond. We perched ourselves on a stoop deep in the Stoneybatter maze to bring you this performance. The street was our stage.
All through the heatwave this summer I've been meaning to take to the streets of Dublin and record how people have been living in the long dry weather. On the forefront of my mind has been the city suburb of Stonebatter Bothar-na-gCloch (Bohernaglogh) The Road of Stones. Originallly a Viking road which led in and out of the Viking settlement of Oxmantown on the north side of the River Liffey. Nowhere in Dublin will you find so many rows and rows of small cottage dwellings. In most cases the scale of each terraced house is no bigger than an average sized aparment but the difference being everyone's livingroom door opens to the street outside. There's a unique feeling when you walk around Stoneybatter that evokes a strong sense of community. People live so close together, connected by the street outside their window. Their doors slightly ajar, the thoroughfair outside feels as much a part of life in their home, than inside their home. I hope you enjoy this virtual stroll, and feel that energy through my images.

I have the feeling whatever Myles O'Reilly touches be it naturally beautiful or the prosaic and the mundane it's all turned to visual and audible poetry.

Oh I'm so very excited to find this. The videography is really inspiring to me. I love to make videos. It looks like England...OH even better it's Ireland. God bless county Galway and all the rest. It's time I made a new video. Reminds me of that sound track from the movie Once. You all know that guy! Makes me want to wear Birkinstocks and fall in love again. Or not.

Beautiful song..... Sad... And the voices.. I love your videos! The way the images connect with the songs, is revealing/composing something entirely different, that is neither sound nor form, but an interpretation of them both, that tries to reach to "the" secret in between... I love their points of focus, the depth, the attention to detail, the way the symbols blend with reality as if they wanted to reshape it back to how it will feel like after we ‘ve (f)reely reshaped it.... The way they 're playful, sharp and gentle at the same time.. Smart and happily devoted to what they show… And daring! And... Well, what I love the most about this specific video is its connection with this one kzbin.info/www/bejne/h3O3lpuDptd_iM0 (?) Cheers!
