I improvised this music for a show with Mark Gualtieri at the Mendelson Gallery in Pittsburgh. The segments I liked from each jam were looped and layered together in Logic and mixed live using my DJ setup. I played viola and banjo on these.
The Answer
The answer is – motion.
Gratitude
A place past loss, contempt, anger – gratitude. People don’t hold true to their own values. It’s human nature. Enjoy good times when you can, they won’t last. Regret is a waste of what little power you possess.
Conditional Love
The only unconditional love is what YOU feel.
Damage
I produced this audio recording and edited the music video.
Fatalism
My father’s fatal flaw.
Edges
Rough around the edges but I have a lot of edges.
The Love Idea
Everything is named;
All styles and everything
We put into a box.
Every study has a name; this style suck, end;
The pleasures on the inside mind, body, bank.
Now when you go out looking
I’ll tell you what you’ll find;
The bullshit train, the trashcans full.
You’ll hear all the voices, all the noisy teachers,
No one teaches Truth.
So what you going to do?
Gonna build a better bomb,
Gonna make another mall.
It’s like the rabbi said
And Bobby Rabyd’s dead.
What would be your will
If you could own the world?
Now if we lived in public everyone could learn.
We could watch the sacred puppets try to be
The men.
Personal crusader spiders went out weaving,
Spiders weaving Christ. The players at the turnstyle
Trade suicide for brawn; a name is on the can.
So what you going to do?
Gonna build a better bomb,
Gonna make another mall.
It’s like the rabbi said
And Bobby Rabyd’s dead.
What would be your will
If you could own the world?
And words like line and line like song.
You must know the price, that choosing is the life.
Ask for simple pieces and hope for better ones;
Get lost in Babylon until you find the love.
Saluting to the tribe, grumpy men with wives,
I ride a bike.
So what you going to do?
Gonna build a better bomb,
Gonna make another mall.
It’s like the rabbi said
And Bobby Rabyd’s dead.
What would be your will
If you could own the world?
That’s the Love Idea, Bill,
That’s the Love Idea.
