The Space Teller is a figure who tabulates and tallies the apocalyptic level trade-offs of a hyper-individualist consumerist 'life-style'. The lyrics tell the tale in this experimental song made mostly with synth sounds generated by feeding samples through an a.i. synth called Synplant. It was an experiment song playing around with Synplant for the first time, it is a pretty neat program!! Real trippy. The music is semi-minimal yet complicated at times. Put some drums to go with it. The lyrics came mostly from news headlines. Wrote a few lyrics for songs that way....going for an imprint of the current zeitgeist. It's interesting.... how has the hyper-connection effected us?
The Space Teller - Tells All! The truth of the planetary ailments and the hang-on-hung-up bias matrices. The collective psyche speaking truth to lies while lying to tell the truth, they mirror each other one decadent the other vulgar. There is no cypher to suffer through in the smugger, only a juggler, draggers that are dull daggers decode themselves as empty gestures implode back to the jugular of the polyjester.
It's a pretty weird song. Made the art for it with a.i. using mage.ai. Went through quite a few pictures, made a bit of a collection. In the end used 2 pictures that came in the beginning of the process. I am glad to get out a song, make some lyrics and art and sound, it's fun to do!!
I let myself go for this experiment song, so let it go longer. First it was just a sound collage type song. It sounded like some lyrics could go with it. I am looking forward to using more of Synplant!! Made another song on it so far...more of an ambient/noise thing.

I'm pretty pumped right now that I will be able to see Skinny Puppy on their final tour this November! In March Ministry, Front Line Assembly and Gary Numan are coming down for a show! It's helping with a bit of inspiration lately.
