Tribute to Phil Dick. RIP Leon

“Empathy, evidently, existed only within the human community, whereas intelligence to some degree could be found throughout every phylum and order including the arachnida. For one thing, the empathic faculty probably required an unimpaired group instinct; a solitary organism, such as a spider, would have no use for it; in fact it would tend to abort a spider’s ability to survive. It would make him conscious of the desire to live on the part of his prey. Hence all predators, even highly developed mammals such as cats, would starve.”

Thank you so much @monnodb for the voice at the end.

My sister and I cared for mum in her own home for the last ten years, going every day. Mum had been diagnosed with vascular dementia. This song is more about what I could see coming, the bad days, as at this time mum was still more lucid than not. Daphne Gennery passed away peacefully on the 30th of August 2025 at the age of 95, in her own home, in her own bed.....something that she always wanted....no hospital or care home.

Lyrics:
on the other side of nowhere in between the nothing she cries
a flicker of a memory drifts into longing and dispair why?

gone is the laughter from feeling to just being
existing in complete isolation
eyes open wide all but dead deep inside
just a shell of the woman

she sits in the darkness alongside delusions and agitation
time shift is a constant through the window to the garden
she stares avidly

gone is the laughter from feeling to just being
existing in complete isolation
eyes open wide all but dead deep inside
just a shell of the woman


gone is the laughter from feeling to just being
existing in complete isolation
eyes open wide all but dead deep inside
just a shell of the woman

Welcome to the Jonny 5 Project music channel!  This project pays homage to a typical 80's childhood inundated with all kinds of robot-themed science fiction,

This project is a simulated experience. You are listening to the Jonny 5 musical robot Serial# A00785, manufactured as a replacement of juke boxes and human disc jockeys. Jonny 5ive plays his music in a dark, smoky, dystopian, shantytown future bar called "Castella" to ease the strain on the minds of the working class. His traveling shows are quite popular in the Dogtown slums and Mechano district.

Bandcamp: coming soon!

Will trade music for promotion. Currently Open for collaborations. Or to buy a commercial music license visit me on https://www.fiverr.com/share/382XBY
