WORLD TRANSMISSION 1+5
THE PLANE

WORLD TRANSMISSION - A SERIES OF RARE TRANSMISSIONS, REDUCED AND PERFORMED BY COLUMN ONE IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER, USING SOME OF ITS PHASES. THIS WORK IS NO RECORDING. IT EXISTS AS A STEPPING CONE WHILE ITS ESSENTIAL CREATORS WERE AT WORK.

W.T.1 WAS RECORDED ON AUGUST 12TH, SEPTEMBER 27TH, AND OCTOBER 5TH, 1992.
WORLD TRANSMISSION 1 WAS ORIGINALLY RELEASED IN 1992 ON CASSETTE TAPE UNDER THE TITLE “NEW-RE-GENERATION”. THE MEANING AND FUNCTION OF THIS SERIES WERE NOT CLEARLY DEFINED AT THAT TIME. VARIOUS UNRELEASED VERSIONS OF THIS FIRST TRANSMISSION TOOK SHAPE, ALL OF WHICH FOLLOWED A DIVERGING EMPHASIS IN THEIR CONCEPTIONAL AND FORMAL DIRECTION. THE ORIGINALLY RELEASED VERSION, WHICH IS NOT INCLUDED HERE, BECAME A MARKED TERMINUS RATHER THAN AN ORIGIN.

THIS RELEASE FOCUSES ON THE ROOTS OF COLUMN ONE THAT LIE IN A COMBINATION OF CODED KEY SOUNDS AND IMAGES. THE ASSOCIATED DEGREES AND MOVEMENTS OF IMMERSION AND SUBMERSION INTO THE CONSCIOUSNESS THAT IS “COLUMN ONE” MOVED, ACCORDING TO THIS PATTERN, IN A CLEAR PROCESS. THESE RECORDINGS ARE BASIC SITUATIONS. LIKE PIECES OF FURNITURE THEY TAKE PLACE WITHOUT VARIATIONS IN A PSYCHIC SPACE - WITHOUT RAISING CLAIM OF WANTING TO ENTER A MUSICAL UNIVERSE.

THE MUSIC IS DEAD.

WORLD TRANSMISSION 5
CONTINUUM

WORLD TRANSMISSION - A SERIES OF TEMPORARY INTERMISSIONS, REDUCED AND PERFORMED BY COLUMN ONE IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER, USING SOME OF ITS PHASES. THIS WORK DOES NOT TAKE THE FORM OR FUNCTION OF A RECORDING. IT EXISTS, ABOVE ALL, AS A MOVEMENT, A ROCK THAT WAS IMMACULATE WHILE ITS ESSENTIAL CREATORS WERE AT WORK.

W.T.5 WAS RECORDED THE NIGHT OF AUGUST 23RD - 24TH, 2001, AND AUGUST 9TH, 2010.
CONTINUUM IS THE FINAL CHAPTER IN THE WORLD TRANSMISSION SERIES. THE CONCEPT OF THESE FIVE ALBUMS, THEIR VISUAL AND CONCEPTUAL DIRECTION, WAS EXCLUSIVELY BASED ON THE ARTIFICIAL BODY THAT IS “COLUMN ONE”. IT WAS THE PETRIFIED ROOT OF THIS BODY THAT WAS BURIED IN A PILE OF PLASTIC, ONLY TO GROW WONDROUS BLOSSOMS FROM TIME TO TIME. IN A TIME WHEN MUSEUMS STILL HAD DOORS AND WORDS WERE BARKED INTO MEGAPHONES ON THE QUIET. THE SHOWCASE HAD BEEN OPEN LONG, THE ROOT PENETRATES OTHER LAYERS OF EARTH AND BESTOWS PEACE UPON COLLECTORS OF SPORES AND SEEDS.

CONTINUUM. UPWARDS ACROSS NARROW PATHS AND OVERGROWN ROCKS THE CALLING AND CREAKING LOSES ITSELF IN THE TREETOPS. IT SEEMS AS IF ONE CLIMBS DOWN INTO THE COVES OF THE FOREST. THE WOODEN CATHEDRAL. EACH SOUND LIES NAKED IN THE SILENCE OF THE INTERIOR, WHILE THE OUTSIDE RUSHES FROM FAR ABOVE. PROTECTED BY THESE WALLS, SERVANTS, MASTERS, AND RULERS MOVE ABOUT THEIR EMPIRES. SLEEPWALKING. FLOATING. GNAWING AND DEVOURING THEMSELVES, DRAGGING AND CIRCLING, TEARING AND CREAKING, STOMPING AND BUZZING ALL IN ONE TONE. WEIGHING TONS, THEIR CRAFT LIES ON THE FOREST FLOOR, PERMEATES AND MOVES IT, RISES WITH THE FLUTTERING STROKE OF A WING, AND SINKS BACK INTO THE OCEAN. NOW AND THEN LARGE ANIMALS DRIFT THROUGH THESE SACRED HALLS. KINGS ARE THEY. LOST IN REVERIE THEY RUMBLE THROUGH THE THRONE ROOM. BARELY AUDIBLE, A BILLION LEGS TICK, LIKE CLOCKS. CRACK TINY SPLINTERS BENEATH THEIR FEET...
