Frank Geens

voc, *1970 BE
Electronic and Spoken Word

Born in 1970 in Ghent/Flanders/Belgium. Rolled, at the tender age of 13 in 1983, into the local underground/alternative scene of Post-Punk, Skinhead, New-Wave and Batcave. This was soon followed by an indirect involvement in the Temple Ov Psychic Youth in 1984 which opened the way to a legion of currents such as Laveyan Satanism, Crowlean Thelema and Beinteinsson's Asatru. In 1988, at the age of 18, Frank discovered the Eddukvæði LP by Sveinbjörn Beinteinsson and the Fruits Of Yggdrasil LP by Freya Aswynn and Sixth Comm. These LP's, along with Aswynn's book Leaves Of Yggdrasil as well as the Edda, determined Frank's path in life. Frank has a bachelor's degree in Office Management and has worked for the government as well as private companies, but his focus is on Rune Magick, long bicycle trips, walks in Nature, and reading. Frank is also a financial supporting member of the animal shelter in Ghent/Flanders and the Global Action in the Interest of Animals (GAIA). Since 2008 Frank is, along with Freya herself, an administrator of the :Freya Aswynn: fanpage on facebook. In 2016, Frank had a modest involvement in Aswynn's deck of rune cards, being Runes Of Yggdrasil, published by the Atlantis Bookshop in London. Also in 2016, Frank founded :TROTH: For this project, Frank makes all the music, does all the cover artwork, photography, as well as making all the masks and other :TROTH: ritual objects. The :TROTH: sigil was also designed by him.
