Last Bipolar Bear video of 2012...Fade Away by Kira Kenley

The idea came from Kira, who actively took part in all phases of the process. She came up with the concept of the 'mechanical mind' ie all our conditionings and habits that get in the way. 'Fade away' is about getting away from those to make space for Truth and Love in your life. The mechanical mind becomes the mechanical doll she's miming as she sings, that goes back in her box at the end of the song. I think that's a beautiful metaphore for the act of claiming freedom from your mind and getting rid of everything that gets in the way of that freedom. We actually did the video twice, and in hindsight I'm glad we did as this second version is more minimal, purer and more to the point than the previous one. Kira was there working on it with me all the way. We had some good laughs, (and some good food!), too. :)

'Fade Away' is Kira Kenley's debut album 'Get Along', coming out this year.

Much love and a happy new year to all, I hope 2013 bring us many opportunities to create marvelous and enlightening work
