Above the flow No dross, nothing left to chance Strange fruits, strange skins Dust in the sun Dust sinking in the sun. She keeps her head up above the flow The dark matter she knows That gathers below No gloss, eyes spilling aims Cold pants, legs blending stains Wind in hangings Breath is singing in endings No words , nothing to hang on to All we have to lose is what’s been and gone, The mute writing on the wall Repeating what’s been said and done No words, no gloss, no dross, no loss

I try to dance A woman sits facing a porthole The reflections of a world shining in her eyes Can you see the clouds waltzing ? She continues to reinvent them An untiring desire for opportunities I feel like I know her Can there be more ? She went beyond my memory Can this be done ? The cabin that houses her seems desolate The forms that surround her are smooth and safe Can you see dancing in the window ? Everything here is made to be forgotten, not to disturb There is nothing here, the room is uninhabited Everything that seems to be endless Takes place in her consciousness Can you see these new dancing steps ? Now she knows what she sees taking shape Is this world which dances in her head Can you see me goddess ? I try to dance

Resonances 04:30
Resonances Last day’s fragment Memory’s failed on a bugged screen Unstable clips of fractal movements Some kind of report from an ageless queen And the glass wires in that smoky jug Resolve to the form of a setup plug Whispers of a queen A whirlwind, an abyss A beam of words stitched in curtains Prayers of a whole world in a single sentence Whispers of a queen A whirlwind, an abyss A threnody, a lament, a dirge, a keen Last garbled moments She must leave and must bequeath They let her carry all of their quirks All phobias, fear, and failing works The mother of all remembrances A Balance point for all divergences The last tail end of resonant chords Leaves me asking Was there a crew on board ? A light crackling sound in my skull As Some debris rings against the hull

Things get ahead of myself My clock makes a time breach Brings splits and ruptures Shuts my mind from life Time for another time I strangely get used to these changes Think they become longer They became more real My beating time is lost Things get ahead of myself Some lines and points Get lost in my brain Keep away from the fast lane Do I now get ahead of these things A blind wall is passing in my dull flat wings The shape of a small and steep brick track Keeps me in touch with never looking back

about

2MASS, pour Two Micron All-Sky Survey, est un projet de relevé astronomique réalisé il y a une vingtaine d’années qui a permis de cartographier une partie de l’univers.
2MASE est une expédition musicale qui explore des «instantanés» de moments possibles dans ces zones cartographiées. Mais c’est également une exploration introspectives; Ici un oeil se referme sur nos voyages intérieurs tandis que l’autre s’ouvre pour scruter l’infini. Le voyage n’est pas contraint à une durée, il est alimenté par le besoin d’explorer les destinations indéfinies dictées par le dé aux faces illimitées .
Pour cela notre équipage est réduit à l’essentiel.
Nous sommes trois.

The Two Micron All-Sky Survey, or 2MASS, was an astronomical survey realised some 20 years ago attempting to map the whole sky in the infrared.
2MASE is a musical expedition which explores snapshots of possible moments in those sectors mapped by the survey.
It also explores our own introspections in the light of this project. For us, one eye closes and looks inwards while the other reaches out to explore the possibilities of the infinite.
Our trip is not constrained in time and is powered by a need to explore the undefined destinations dictated by the throw of the infinite dice.
Even our crew is cut to the bare essentials.
We are but three.
