Music by Monty Cantsin, Tristan-Stephan Renaud, Gaetan Gravel. 520 The history of Neoist myth and mission told by a perplexing series of symbolism. Similarly to mass media which constantly mediate reality by transforming actual events into images and narratives, Kantor/Cantsin creates a new mythology by letting his life events mixed up with fiction. Cantsin travels around the world wearing a fish hat, searching for Neoism. 520 Experimental, absurdist narrative music video. The main piece (20:48) is followed by approximately 25 minutes of silent Neoist computer graphics titles from Synchro tapes / Catastronics. 538 U-matic NTSC. 541 0 PFA 0750-01-10862.
