Nicholas Berry I love the experimental nature of the piece. The spoken word aspect rather than singing can be challenging, especially the timing. Andrew seems to performed the piece perfectly

about

This spoken word piece set to music is informed and inspired by the surrealist Georges Bataille. In particular his piece Sacrificial Mutilation and the Severed Ear of Vincent Van Gogh. His inspiration was the Annales medico-psychologiques 1924 vol 1. Using this same touchstone I bring you the curious case of Gaston F, age 30, embroidery designer, admitted Saint-Anne hospital, January 25, 1924.
