Love Is Here

Another snippet from Caligo Paean -

Caligo Paean is a 1 hour long sound piece installed on river front property in the town of Franklin, Tasmania as part of the exhibition "When The Fog Clears". It formed part of the Ten Days on The Island Festival March 2025.
The work was installed in several locations across the property including a stack of subs under an old bus, in the main exhibition space and in an abandoned shed some 40 metres from the main area . The speakers were 'tuned' quite differently depending on their location and the sound was not delay corrected with the result of each mini-installation merging with each other in odd sonic ways - kind of calling the listener from one spot to another. The the work features field recordings, percussion, piano, bass guitar and Intonarumori as well as this special one off choir : )

Caligo is the Ancient goddess of Chaos. Born of the fog she controls the darkness, dwells in the void and is as old as the primordial matter that created the universe. This work is a tribute to the goddess as she continues to influence our lives and, in the case of this installation, the site and concept informing the show.

Official press release below for The Fog Clears

Every day, the mists of the Huon Valley perform a seductive dance, gently obscuring and revealing contours of the fertile land and waters. Situated in The Watershed Franklin, When The Fog Clears features six artists from lutruwita / Tasmania exploring the region’s iconic mists through a variety of mediums including installation, sculpture, illustration, sound, and video.

Developed exclusively for Franklin, this exhibit extends from the waterfront itself into the chambers, kilns, and rafters of the shed, inviting visitors to consider fog as an atmosphere that can cloak us in unexpected ways.

Pourquoi le beau métal s’attache-t-il toujours à la rouille ?

la rouille & le beau metal (avec öthaan)

This track captures the quiet transition between night and sunrise, that moment before work when the world is still half‑asleep. Built on soft electronic textures and slow ambient pulses, it moves like light breaking through clouds. Energy of early morning before the day fully begins.

Then Your Arms Fall Off

Second atmosphere. The tension is at its peak, the devil is lurking in the shadows... Best experience with headphones or between two good speakers!

Deuxième atmosphère. La tension est à son comble, le diable est tapi dans l'ombre... Meilleure immersion au casque ou entre deux bonnes enceintes !

Atmosphere #2: The Devil

C'mon over and tell me what you see
there's a crate full of future looming over me
heaved up by a pulley made of harden'd steel
held up only by a tiny pulley wheel

C'mon over and tell me what you hear
the dogs are howling in anger and in fear
there’s wolves in the forests prowling for a kill
and a doomsday crow is sitting on my sill

C'mon over and tell me what you smell
there's a sulphorous odour coming straight from hell
and a smiling demon is sitting on my knee
in the mills of exploitation in the land of the free

C'mon over and tell me who I am
am I a martyr or simple music man
there's a guy in the window in a c c suit
you won't get to the problem unless you dig to the root
(don't wear a cc suit, just don't)

the lyrics are inspired by and written to fit stonerjazz's CRYSTAL CITY BLUS

Sea Smoke

An intimate frontier.  A melody lost on waking.  A memory from childhood.  A hope for forgiveness.  A season ended.  A photograph of a moment you don’t remember.  A treasured object found and lost.  A thought interrupted.  A mirror in an empty room.  The dust of an evening.  An incomplete equation.  A discussion with possibility.  A missing adversary.  My impression from our last meeting.
