The short poem 'Things & their substance' is a stanza taken from a longer poem called 'Matter mater madre'.

'Things and their substance
The unambiguous certainty of proximity

Le cose e la loro sostanza
L’inequivocabile certezza della prossimità'

Please help me to inspire Ade to reopen his line of Wesley Willis t-shirts. Mine wore out. I need a new one. Thanks Wesley so much for your pure and uninhibited authenticity. Thank goodness that you were around when you were and also thank goodness for the random people I sometimes meet who seem to embody a similar spirit to you. It was only last weekend I was lucky enough to meet an old lady, a 'cancerian' called Diana, who sang Doors songs with me at the market. Thank you, I understood and good luck. She understood the 'flake.' Back to this song, it's a true story and if I hadn't have made this, Ade's head might have exploded like when we was at Krakatoa in the famous picture. this kind of joke is warped innit. Will someone please design me a 'this kind of joke is warped t-shirt?' Ade, I'm looking at you but I know you're busy. I love my friend Ade and all my friends, it kills me so bad that life cut me off for so long and seems to be trying to perform a checkmate, but at least there is still the gag, the joke, even if it's warped. As long as there is even a trace of it, a remnant, that's enough to carry on. PS. I'm serious about trying to find the Canadian lady who wanted to buy a bulk order of Wesley Willis shirts for her shop. If this song ever found her, I would literally buy Ade the cable so he could access his old computer for the design, get a t-shirt press, and press them myself and this time take the details down correctly and ship em out. thank you. love greybagZ and the bugman. this is a song, a celebration of 'the gag', friendship, the flake and not giving a fuck.

This kind of joke is warped (in dedication to Wesley Willis)

This is a song about a dehumanized human being inserting code strings on the terminal console of his computer, and convincing himself of being somehow almighty or immortal, thanks to the privileged relationship he thinks he has established with the processor. But his computer's crude response is that he's just a freaking out mortal creature...

LYRICS:

[Computer:] lns/dev/dsp/lsd/
[Dehumanized human:] I really won’t surrender… I’m gonna live much longer
[Computer:] I got your words misplaced… I ain’t no friendly interface
[Dehumanized human:] Terminal, please save us all
[Computer:] You’re terminally ill – pacmd; load module; remap sink; sink name equal mono
[Dehumanized human:] I’m gonna live forever… C’mon babe, let’s have a drink together
[Computer:] Your mind is really messed up, I’m gonna have a drink from your cup
[Dehumanized human:] Terminal, please hear my call
[Computer:] You’re terminally ill – cat/proc/bus/user/usb U.S.A.
[Dehumanized human:] I’m gonna mock the devil, increase the fighting level
[Computer:] Your code is certainly wrong, so I believe your time ain’t long
[Dehumanized human:] Terminal, I guess I’m losing control

Ignite To Fly

chete' knife!

The basic tracks for some of these songs were scattered through other music I had recorded over the last ten years.  Quarantine has given me the time to hear some of this music with fresh ears. In most instances dozens of instrument tracks were stripped away to find some forgotten core that made me nod or smile.  Then I started again.  All new recording has been done since the start of lock down and tries to put a sound on the subtle dislocation of a global disaster that is mostly (for me) expressed in my daily life as an absence, a taking away rather than a presence; a distantly felt thing.  

All tracks recorded and mixed at Shadowbear Studio.  Mastering at Black Knoll Studio.  Photo taken by Csilla Varadi.
