about

The ambient song tells in free verse the american childhood of a simple man: Bill Clinton aka William Jefferson Blythe III.

From a birth in Hope until a mysterious car crash, the poem talks about a destiny of unreal numbers, a wood frame house in Arkansas and an empty sandbox in the desert. Probably, a false and true story for a myth, and Virginia, nurse an-esthetist of a fallen empire.

Overall eight quatrains for a tweaking momentum.

The project is a cosmopolitan [mix]ture between european spirits:

Laetitia Schteinberg, electro-swedish voice in the avant-garde music;

Philippe Lamy, for the inspirational sounds and the harmonic breakdown after his Pleq's experience;

Deborah Parkin, british photographer, with her floating floral notes, like a grey black and white crown;

Nicolas Grenier, french emulator and transatlantic respiration for Bill's poem.

« Words that people feel self-conscious using, one of them is beauty ».
Deborah Parkin.
