Pipilotti

I'm listening to weird music in the car. It's a CD I got for a single song called "Ever is Over All"



Which is from a modern art installation at the St. Louis Art Museum from, oh, 9 years ago? I love the internet--I was able to find a copy of this CD from a music seller in Spain. It's a collection of all the soundtracks of Pipilotti Rist's video installations.

I got it for that song, the ethereal humming dreaminess complete with crashing sounds, but I got a bonus. A spoken word track in French, German, and a bit of English. The English part says in a reassuring female voice:

we are on the way to find you ...
so please forget who you are


I need to scrawl that on a wall. These days....

The summer it was there, I wasn't working (teacher) and I went all the time. I must have taken that walk with the headphones 12 times. I took everyone who would go with me....

That's how my mom was, too. She took me to go twice. Oh, it was so good...
