Lady Day New York. A lower East Side night, pouring rain. A singing voice from a bar. Music. Smoke. Sounds. Liquors. Drugs. An eulogy for Billy Holiday. A song by Lou Reed, one of his first ones I've ever loved. Dancing Satyr Dancing Satyr This imposing dancer in metal hues (gold, copper, bronze) is stepping as a moving monolith, amidst a flourishing yet undefined landscape. His dance is sacred, look at the retropulsion of the torso, the sacral gesture of hands and fingers, this is an epiphany. His head is crowned, but his featureless face and his body are... Vasily Ivanovich Chapayev Vasily Ivanovich Chapayev Portrait of Russian communist Cossack. Out of a poor peasant family, he fought in the Civil War against the White Armies. He met his own death while fighting. He became then a hero for the post-revolutionary Russia. Revolutions always need their own heroes, and a dead one is no danger at all for the men... Warlord Warlord An ancient City burning, the red of flames through the windows of the belfry, the red-lighted palace. The warrior, a chief. Ram horns decorating his helmet. The flaming sun decorating his shield around the boss. Mars in Aries, a novel on war by Alexander Lernet-Holenia. He exploding glasses of the rose window of the cathedral... Street hassle Lou Reed once again. Street Hassle, his poisonous album widely inspired by his transgender muse Rachel Humphreys. Lyrics: pure Delmore Schwartz – style. Theme: the underworld of transvestites and junkies, Lou Reed's main inspirational source at those times. But the idea came to me from the works of a german painter whose works I enjoy:...

I AM A HYPERBOREAN

ZALMOXIS

I come from long ago, from a time long passed. I come from a faraway land much beloved by Apollo, the great distant God of prophecy and archery, the God of diseases and of cures.

Truth is

who am I?

I WAS TOO MANY TO REMEMBERI DON’T WANT TO BE REMEMBEREDTHIS ONLY MATTERS: MY CHARMS, MY LASTING DAYSI WILL SURVIVEMY LONG GOING EXISTENCE IS NO JOKEI AM A MAGICIAN, A PRIEST FOR APOLLO, A HYPERBOREANI LUST FOR BLOOD, WHICH IS LIFE BY ITSELF

I think strange things which I dare not confess to my own soul

I AM ALL IN A SEA OF WONDERS I DOUBT I FEAR

No se puede propio saber lo que sabe el lobo. El lobo es incognoscible. Preguntar lo que sabe el lobo es como preguntar los arboles. Las piedras. El mundo.

Mit ungläublicher Ehrfurcht Lautschten wir den langsamen Takten des Walzwerks der Front, einer Melodie, die uns in langen jahren Gewohnheit werden sollte.

THE PREMISE IS

To approach Zalmoxis, we start from Apollo. God of Forecasting. God of Diseases, Supreme Healer. Magician Sire of the Underworld, God of the Far Traveling Arrow. He is not Greek, he came from the immense plains in the North-East, from lands where the Sun rises and lasts.
