about

ABSTRACT:

I was once asked where do I find inspiration, and my answer was where don't i find it? My nom de guerre is an incredulous yet deadpan rejoinder to a notion presented on Arthur C. Clarke's Childhood's End. Namely that humans could not (Fozzy?) bear a utopia, for it was too boring. At any rate, after returning from tour last week I became very ill (again.) The side effect of this temporary but periodic malady was intense listlessness...aka ennui.

•THIS•THAT•IS•NOT•

Yesterday as I absorbed images of a hellish NYC, looking like some kind of burnt ochre AI daguerreotype, whilst I myself coughed up a lung where I from Marcy son, I became inspired to compose an in-exhaustive disquisition on a creature who not only isn't sickened by the inevitable desert dusk of man(and woman)kind, but thrives.
