You Are The Light

Who here remembers Laurie Anderson's "Strange Angels"? I thought of its lyrics when I read Raðulfr Maganhar's description for his track, "Indoors Light Infinite." He writes, "Angels exist, but unfortunately they are deadly. The emptiness it leaves overwhelms the neurons in each memory with a mixture of feelings, light, and darkness. Happiness and torment. Being lucky and tied hand and foot."

Uncertainty's heartbeat pounds through this track as it did through all of 2020. When I left a comment to tell @raoulfr his thrumming chiaroscuro had become part of my internal soundtrack that year, he generously invited me to add some vocals. Here they are—a few strange angels of my own. Some shriek. Some howl. Some are out of tune. Some sing like sirens. I'm pretty sure all of them are trouble, but at least one of them meant well.

"They're haunting me
This is nothing like I thought it would be ... "

Unruly Angels (Vocal improvisation on  Raðulfr Maganhar's "Indoors Light Infinite")

This is a something in between a re-mix and a re-make of an old montage piece based on recordings of electrostatic generators that I made in Teylers Museum (Haarlem), and sounds I designed around that. The piece was left out of the actual series of pieces ('Beauty Sleepers') performed there as part of the Toon festival in 2001. The re-make/re-model version was made in loving dedication to my father who passed away on January 24th 2022.

Petrichor (/ˈpɛtrɪˌkɔːr/)[1] is the earthy scent produced when rain falls on dry soil. The word is constructed from Ancient Greek πέτρα (pétra) 'rock', or πέτρος (pétros) 'stone', and ἰχώρ (ikhṓr), the ethereal fluid that is the blood of the gods in Greek mythology.

Dismantling The Silence

points of no return

life is the slowest suicide
you know you go and you just cant hide
no shelters and no parachute
all you can do is contribute
its just a risk you got to take
just a point I'd like to make

take the chance to simply chill
to motionless stand still
no ecological footprint to be made
it's that or simply levitate
it's a choice you've got to take
just a point I try to make

impossible to hold position
while being bullets shot in to space
with no particular aim or target
just a journey, not a race
so the point I dotted grew a line
might be capricious, but it is mine
mere particles getting their act together
or trying to, for that matter
time and space do not compare
apples, oranges and splitting hair
it all falls into place, all facts are joined
needless to mention I still made my point
