Goat Mountain Revival

2018

From the ashes of the Burned-Over District...

Step into a haunting post-human landscape and experience the Bible in reverse.

GOAT MOUNTAIN REVIVAL is a virtual reality journey through poetry, voice, music, and the ghostly industrial architecture of Buffalo. Recorded inside an abandoned grain elevator at Silo City, the film brings together original poetry by Noah Falck, vocals by Nola Ranallo, and visceral cello by TJ Borden.

The work moves through ruin, prophecy, memory, and rebirth, using the immense reverberation of the grain elevators as both an instrument and a landscape. Human voices and acoustic instruments collide with the remains of industry, imagining a world after the structures that built it have disappeared.
