So, the video premiere got delayed...again. This brought me right back to 2021, the height of Covid, when my original content got taken down and I was banned from YouTube. That whole experience was devastating, a real punch to the gut. &nbsp;This time, the premiere delay felt like a cruel echo of that past trauma. &nbsp;Putting yourself out there as an artist is hard enough, opening yourself up to judgment and accusations, especially when exploring themes like mental health, body positivity, and sex positivity. &nbsp;This video, inspired by my own struggles with bipolar disorder, uses powerful imagery – two naked men exploring themes of control and surrender within a sexual phantasy – to express the universal feeling of being trapped in a nightmare and yearning for liberation. Big thanks to Lou for talking me through it just then and now – that conversation was a lifeline. &nbsp; The good news is, the video IS finally up online and STILL is (though a few hours later than on Apple Music). &nbsp; Never give up on your dreams. &nbsp; Listen to us chat about it in the video below!<figure id="figure-4t6cfhp14hm5sdwaa9" class=""><iframe id="4t6cfhp14hm5sdwaa9" src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/1045993859" class="w-full bg-gray-100 " style="aspect-ratio: 16/9;" allowfullscreen="" data-url="https://vimeo.com/1045993859" data-corners="default" data-fullwidth="false" data-mce-src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/1045993859" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9;"></iframe></figure>mentalhealth #bodypositivity #sexpositivity #art #censorship #nevergiveup #sadboyproject #indie #artist #expression #delayedpremiere #2021flashback #bipolar #nightmare

nightmare.vision – a digital log book

The purpose of the nightmare.vision website, set up like a digital logbook, is to explore and showcase Fabio Thomas Bissinger’s artistic vision for Nightmare. It serves as a platform for viewers to engage with themes of alienation, resilience, and reconnection. The site not only features the music video but also offers behind-the-scenes insights and reflections on the creative process. By highlighting the collaborative efforts of global artists, the website stands as a testament to art's power to transcend isolation and foster human connection.
