nobody here

I'm not quite sure who found who first - was it me that found this song or was it the other way around? Either way. It is rather mesmerizing together with that video, and it's wiggly, rainbowy path got me thinking about all the sorts of escapisms that we rush ourselves into, only in order to avoid talking to the one person we never ought to have avoided - ourselves. And we keep that story ongoing until the day we find ourselves staring in the mirror at some face we don't even recognize anymore.
If I needed to find only one word that should describe my brain right now, that'd be "polluted". Let me explain that. Once, I've seen an interview with J. G. Ballard where he talks about misperception of reality. Namely, he says that reality was everything that surrounded us, and what was in our minds was cosidered to be imagination. Now, with all the commercials, all the promises of a happier life (given that our laundry is whiter than that of our neighbours), with all the means of self-promotion (facebook, twitter, and yes, this too), with all those "freedoms" we have only managed to narrow ourselves down to only few basic patterns of existence. With ALL that, imagination becomes everything that surrounds us, and the only reality we can rely on is the one in our heads.
But what happens when we've stopped listening to that inner us so long that we can now barely find it?




What?
Are you waiting for me to answer that?



I can only offer you some guidance in a form of this song.
PJ's got it.
She always kinda does :)







Oh, and by the way, Fever Ray did a Nick Cave cover.
Wait.
Let me repeat that.
Fever Ray and Nick Cave have actually merged.
I couldn't possibly ask for more now.
