When Evil Waits In The Corner
About
TITLE: When Evil Waits In The Corner
Channel: TILM.COM, The Indigenous Literacy Manufacturing Company
The Narrative: Portals and Safe Houses
This track is a cornerstone of the feature screenplay AS A KODEN: TALKING STORY—WHO IS YOUR NAME?. In the story’s reality, the character Willy is navigating the high stakes of a safe house environment. He is performing critical sample runs involving Portals—bridging the gap between our physical world, the digital surveillance of the state, and the ancestral spirit realm.
The Performance: The Hawaii Sessions
Recorded in high definition on the 25th floor of the Ilikai Hotel in Hawaii, this 2026 reimagining uses Suno AI to amplify the original music and lyrics written in 2016. By layering the original audio beneath the new performance, I have created a "spiritual resonance" or echo. Because both tracks share the same key, they harmonize to represent the very portals Willy is navigating in the film.
The Spirit: James and the Sacred Circle
The heart of this film is healing. The background audio—the voices and laughter of children—comes from the actual memorial of my friend and spirit guide, James. In our tradition, the presence of children at a memorial signifies the continuity of life. The song concludes with the voice of Ray Thunderchild (son of Victor Thunderchild), who shares the story of James and the journey our people take as they pass into the spirit world.
This is a Healing Film. We are reclaiming the spotlight from the "Evil in the Corner."
“All for the glory of the Most High. Jesus B avec toi!”
