Such beautiful sounds (non-tonal can be nice!!). Thanks for sharing ;)

Catching words with a writer’s block          
And thinking I was somewhere I’m not
Watching people pass me by
The blank page before me to soon come alive

Sitting down change runs through my mind
And a concept evolves that involves you tonight   
You tell me things that I don’t know
Like forget about now cause the moods so low

And anytime you need to say
Words are forever don’t throw them away
Maybe life seems hard and subdue
But then how do I try and tell you

Cause it’s been, so long
Since you first came along  
So take me home
We’ll sit in silence all alone

And it’s been, great these days 
I never wanted you to go away
So why do you stay
With me here on this blank page

A word, a sentence and a paragraph
Are all that now stands between you and the mask
That covers and shades your tear stained eyes
From the shining light that you really supply

Well here I go, I’m writing and
I’m gonna make this claim       
With you to watch over me 
We gonna ride the road to fame 

Any time you need to say
Words are forever don’t throw them away
Maybe I can rescue you 
But then how do you tell me that won’t do

When it’s been, so long
Since you first came along
So take me home
We’ll sit in silence all alone

And it’s been, great these days
I never wanted you to go away
You don’t have to stay
Alone on this on this empty page

Any time you need to say
Songs are forever don’t throw them away
I know I can rescue you
So hold out your hands and I'll carry you

Cause it’s been, so long
Since you first came along
So take me home
There is no silence or alone

And it’s been, great these days
I never want for you to go away
Come on and stay
With me here on this first page

And it’s been, so long
Since you first came along
We’re all alone
Alone in a safety zone

And it’s been, great these days
I never want for you to go away
You’ve rescued me 
From a life on an empty page

Cintilar

Built around a recording of an alarm forming the audio background to a hospital visit. Musings on dementia.

Turbulent word streams, erratic coherence
Urgent meanings frustratingly mislaid
Inner sense to outer muddle [innocence]
Interface to inner struggle [in your face]
Fragmented paranoia, translucent target, floating beyond the grasp of balanced conscience
Unviolated nuance beyond interpretation
Disjointed intelligence, resentful agitation

Antifesto is a creative alias of Bert-Jan Zuiderduin, a Dutch composer and sound-designer who doubles as a psychotherapist in private practice and at a human rights charity in London.

Bert-Jan originally studied Art and Media Technology at the University of Utrecht before going on to study composition at the Royal Conservatory in The Hague. As greatest influences he cites Conlon Nancarrow and Morton Feldman. 

Through his later psychotherapy studies and practice, Bert-Jan stumbled across Carl Jung’s theory of the Transcendent Function, which describes a dialectic transformative process very much akin to his own way of writing. In essence, this theory describes two opposing forces joining to create a third. 

Bert-Jan’s work juxtaposes often contrasting ideas or even techniques. Makes use of extremely structured as well as completely improvised or accidental material. Another characteristic is the simultaneous occurrence of repetition and continuous change as has also been explored in minimalist music.

Previously, Bert-Jan worked more conceptually, for example his work ‘Beauty Sleepers’ existing of field recording made in Teylers Museum, Haarlem, where the composer attempted to bring back to life the ‘sleeping’ scientific instruments from bygone ages. There was even an electronic homage to Frank Zappa (‘20.000.000 False Moustaches Can’t be Wrong’).
