    The Red Door: Jeffrey Combs Sync Video

    The Red Door from Jake Kotze on Vimeo.

    This is the Jeffrey Combs video made for Radio8Ball.

    I called it The Red Door the title of an 'ancient' lost Sync Whole post that was never completed but posted below as some background to the ideas that helped form the video.

    Might update this post with stills and extra comments over the week.

    Peace In = Peace Out

    For more context: C-Ing Red, The Red I of the Blue One, Heal The World, Make It a Better Place, Pots and Pans.
    This is the wall hanging of a red door at the Yoga studio I practice in.
    "The Men Who Stare At Pan" (Pan/Whole/Totality). Another name for Illuminated/Enlightened/Self Realized.
    Red All Seeing I. Seeing All as I (Awareness of Pan/Totality). Goat and I emanate from he of Space/Cosmic Consciousness, the one who is Spacey...
    Ewam McGregor gets a red dot drilled into his forehead in "Shallow Grave". McGregor and Spacey merge with each other and the goat.

    The Red Eye or Bindi that highlights the Ajna StarG8, another red door..
    La Vie En Rose, seeing life through the rose colored glasses of Self Realized Being. Spacey C-Ing red in K-pax with another Goat man Bridges.
    The Christ Consciousness which arises from the dead/sleep and awakens is the flowering One Rose.
    The Red Door atop the pyramid.., as walkway in perspective recedes to make such a shape.

    The red theme being used all over American Beauty as roses, blood and the iconic red door.
    Haley Joel Osment (a Tin Man in A.I) meets Bruce Willis (a Tin Man in Surrogates) as Ghost or SpiriT for the first time inside this Church's red doors.
    Mel Gibson opens a red door atop his apartment building in Conspiracy Theory. The WTC pillars are seen directly above him and the Red Door..
    Most Neon Open signs WE/ME pass have the words Open in red, surrounded by blue.


    Spots are red and waves are blue
    If I am not I then you are not you...The idea that spots and dots of i's strange attract red, while floW and deities blue, was also explored briefly at the sync whole as The Red Eye of the Blue Star. That post kinda killed my interest in working on the above red door themes as it seemed 'done with', until the opportunity to make this Combs video arrived, that is.

    New stuff:
    The Red Door is the red spot/storm eye on Jupiter.

    From Twitter:

    Kevin Spacey. Awareness of Space or 'Space Consciousness' as opposed to form or object bias is symptomatic of Awakening.

    Spacey Consciousness, also Cosmic Consciousness or realization of the primary Essence of every moment.

    Here is the actual viewing of the video on Radio8Ball with Jeffrey Combs.

    He doesn't seem to resonate with it.
    It's a fascinating process of learning what the stars themselves think of these.

    This was the second try at this kind of experiment, see Rae Dawn Chong's for the first.

    I think if we keep this up, the feedback, like on a microphone, will get very trippy.

    Slightly creepy

    The road to Self realization has been encrusted in pop culture with many creepy associations. We must walk on. "Death is the road to awe" as is a Yellow Flower.

    Couldn't look you in the eye. You're just like an Angel. You're skin makes me cry. You float like a feather in a beatiful world. I wish I was special. You're so very special.

    Cover

    The title wording on the front cover is an ambigram; it can also be read as "American Reality".[5] The artwork was produced by Mouse-Kelley Studios. It has also been said that if it is looked at upside down and in a mirror it can also be read as "Devils Kingdom".[citation needed] This is called a mirror image, or glass door ambigram.



    Spooky stuff, kids! A-whooooooo!!!!!!

    But seriously: good stuff once again. Big fan. "Wheel is turnin and you can't slow down..."


    P.S. -- From Wikipedia:

    "Blue Man Group was also parodied on the The Simpsons, where Bart threw a ball into one's members mouth in a church." Can't find the clip anywhere, alas...

    Oh, and Colbert tonight had a cartoon type thing of Uncle Sam getting a pill (which represented the health care bill) rammed down his throat but being blocked half way down by the Republicans and then he turns all blue in the neck/face and keels over from choking... Made me think of the whole Shiva the blue throated one thing and how it's from drinking an ocean full of soma, iirc and how that all REALLY obv has something to do with blue staining cubensis mushrooms, holy cow, holy shit, etc (am I right?!)...

    Look at Performance... I see a red door and I see Jagger spray painting a red wall black... Bullet thru forehead leading to mystical merging (?) of consciousnessesesssss... General tripadelica... Roeg goes on to make Don't Look Now... Sutherland haunted by/chasing a Red Dwarf (sounds like door)... This is referenced in scenes involving son Kiefer in Flatliners (dying/resurrection stuff)... Kiefer goes on to star in... wait for it -- Behind the Red Door.

    Makes perfect sense. He plays a Blue Alien,and a being with third-eye Pineal opened and extruding making him able to truly See (beyond form / one dimension.) As the audience member said, he showed his S on his chest, in superman fashion displaying his Sea Hawks shirt... he mentions OZ.. Song is "stolen" sounds like restrictions of Earth... for whatever multifaceted reason that may be, or maybe we have the amnesia, and are "stolen" from true essence for now. What a fun premise for a show. Great job

    Also:

    Although Anderson had, almost two decades before, dropped the song from her performance repertoire, she revived the piece in 2001 during a concert tour that included a retrospective look at some of her older pieces, an idea conceived by her companion, Lou Reed. A live performance of "O Superman" was recorded in New York City the week following the 9/11 attacks. In this context, certain lyrics appeared to many to take on a more topical significance: "This is the hand, the hand that takes / Here come the planes / They're American planes. Made in America / Smoking or non-smoking?" The 2001 live performance appears on Anderson's 2002 album Live in New York.




    And, of course: Lost (and/or Found?) Boy Corey Haim reclaimed by Kiefer from beyond the red door wtf....?!


    And Jagger says something in Performance like "this mushroom is going to bore a hole thru yr head..." I seem to recall... Blue man, shiva, mushrooms lol
