Lyrics / copyright jo richter:
concatenandus - (on the meaning of wind generators in fashion photography)

she kept wondering about all those photographs
that show flowing hair and wide, wind-swept robes
until she understood: those ropes connect halves
of a self that's caught and its dasein-based scopes

what is my real size if it's not epidermical skin?
the reach of my voice? my status, hierarchical clout?
my environmental footprints, global, within?
my life's agenda? some will being lived out?

what is my true reach into psyche, space, time?
which pasts do shape my tribulations and loves?
she thought of herself as a poor poet's rhyme,
as a reflection of life in a stock photograph.

a stranger wave of understanding hit her
when she unfolded into the moment -
she was not singled out, her whole world was with her
she was connected in a well-worn arrangement

of events manifest: she yelled out with joy:
birds nest in my hair, my feet walk the ground
this self tried to bind me, this gravitational ploy
but beyond all that hassle, spins a world that is round

Open for collaboration: Concatenandus - on the meaning of wind generators in fashion photography

Based on an Andrea Krux sample, heavily remixed to an ambiant track with a slight dance feeling. As always, listen with a good headset or sound system ;-)

La Porta stretta

Improvviso / il sonno /
l'attimo /
la Porta stretta /
quella che non ti aspettavi /
la luna è piena / velata /
sembra rovescia /

è un'allucinzione /
è la stessa che guardavi /
che altri guarderanno / 
che ancora guarderai / 
da un'altra te /
nel suo andare lento / 

non hai forza di interrogare le ombre /
le segui e ti confondi in loro /
muori e rinasci /
nell'atomo di un astro /
l'unica certezza che scorre in te /

immensa eredità di un Soffio. 

@Lorena Ulpiani - poesia tratta da Navigando l'ignoto

The Narrow Gate


Sudden / the numbness /
the moment /
the Narrow Gate /
the one you did not expect /
the moon is full / veiled /
she looks upside down /
a hallucination /
she is the same one you were looking at /
the one others will look at /
the one you will look at from another time /
from another life /
in her slow going /
you have no strength to question shadows /
you follow them, and you get lost in them /
die and be born again /
in the atom of a star /
the only certainty that flows within you /
the immense inheritance of an unknown Breath.

Even Now 320

I make music because it is where I let go of the have-to’s, and become part of something larger than myself. The language I speak on the keyboard when I improvise expresses a part of me that only comes out there at the moment of creation - when I’m fully connected and in the flow. In those moments when I disappear in the music, those are where I’m most fully alive. The musical question I pose to myself when I play is largely this: how can I release my inhibitions and let go of patterns sufficient to bring something entirely new, unexpected, and enlightening into the world, with structure, precision, clarity, and depth of expression. These pieces are meditations that are of me, but more precisely, they come through me. When I’m in the flow, I’m channeling the energy and only moderately directing it. The challenge is to be open to take risks while maintaining a structure, melody, and tempo that makes it interesting and satisfying enough to keep listening. I keep doing this nightly because it’s a language, because it’s a connection to something greater than myself, and because it’s very very relaxing.
