I am new here.
I am new here.
I am new here.
 
I am new here and I did not become someone different
that I did not want to be.
I made choices
I did not become the one
that they wanted that I become.
 
They say, they say, they say :
War is Peace
Peace is Security
Security is Order
Order is Comfort
Comfort is Money
Money is Happiness
Happiness is Slavery
Slavery is Freedom
Ignorance is Strength
Pray to our God
Pay our Taxes
Trust our Master
Follow our Leaders
Play our Games
Respect our Rules
Help us to maintain Order
Wear our Uniforms
Sleep Deeply
Dream our Dreams
And then you will live in Harmony
And then you will be Free and then you will have acquired Happiness…

 
I think that disorder is order less authority.
I believe that uniformity andobedience are the highest ramparts of authority.
When you make your peace with authority, you become authority
you become standardized.
Uniformity is present everywhere, since we are born.
The dead weight of uniformity, of conformity, lies upon us,
in habits, taste, thoughts and ideas.
He who refuses to submit himself is immediately labelled « Strange »,
« Different » and slandered as a worrying element in the comfortable
stagnation of Modern Life.
I believe in a long, prolonged, derangement of the senses in order
to obtain the unknown. This seems to me
to be the only possible path.

SOMEWHERE IN THE TIME
SOMEWHERE IN THE ME

My eyes are open.
I awoke
Had I been dreaming ?

INTERNAL MOVEMENTS

I try to remember, but it’s been too long…
How much time has gone by ?
Hours ? Days ? Weeks ? Months ? Years ?
Hard to say.Time is different in the inside.
Where does this hammering come from ?

VIVID NOISES IN THE THICKNESS OF THE TIME
VIVID NOISES IN THE THICKNESS OF THE ME

It seems to be in me, in my ears and in my body.
The more it frightens me, the stronger and faster it is.
I believed I was becoming deaf. And then I understood…

ANOTHER TIME
ANOTHER ME

It’s very loud here.

ECHOES OF TIME
ECHOES OF ME

What I think does not count, what account, it’s what I do not think
and what always returns to me.

ME AGAINST TIME AGAIN
ME AGAINST ME AGAIN
LOOKING FOR THE RIGHT TIME
LOOKING FOR THE RIGHT ME

I am new here.
I am new here.
I am new here.

EQUATION OF TIME
EQUATION OF TIME

Are you interested in solitude by any chance ?
Are you interested in solitude by any chance ?
I think that alone, the individual must learn to be on his own
for this doesn’t mean to be alone.
I made choices.

PERPETUAL MOVEMENTS

Are you interested in disorder by any chance ?

REBEL

We are all going to die right ?
I am going to die right ?
Right, but I shall not die lying.

WITHOUT COMPROMISE
BURN

Are you interested in mirrors, by any chance ?

MOVE
INSIDE THE TIME
INSIDE THE ME
DIVIDING THE FEAR BY MULTIPLYING THE RISKS

When you have exceeded your vision,
 when you will have crossed the wall of the wall.
You will meet yourself
You will recognize yourself.

ADDING THE PASSION TO THE REASON

Dead end ?
Reality is arbitrary.
Nothing is objective, everything is permitted.

LOVE

STAIRS
STAIRS
STAIRS

Would you like to dance ?
