After interpreted many times standards Piaf, Barbara, Serge Lama… before an audience visibly always conquered by the French song, I wanted my turn to share them with my own titles, my love for it. I am closer to the government to create an intimate complicity. The blues, jazz, Latin music, French chanson years 40 to 60 are, in my view, the source of authenticity and hence inspiration. "Historia de coeur", the title of the album could have been placed in the plural. I thank the musicians: Carlos Werneck, Luiz Augusto-Cavani, William Lecomte, Philippe Ours, Jimmy Drouillard, Bruno and Succeti Casties, to have believed and have everything. A big thank you to Xavier Escabasse (which bears his name) "Cabasse" because as everyone knows the best brand audio World! and compositions for the realization of this beautiful baby ...

Wire

Since their formation in London in 1976, the four members of Wire have maintained and advanced a musical project which treats the creative potential of a rock band as a fluid, amorphous medium. As removed from self-conscious intellectualism as they are from the inherent conservatism of much rock music, Wire employ their unique, endlessly restless and risk-taking creativity to question every aspect of songwriting, recording and performance. They delight and disturb in equal measure, troubleshooting the circuitry of perfect pop, or patrolling the limits of focused experimentalism. In terms of working together as Wire, the group's members disbanded in 1980, reformed in 1985, disbanded in 1992 and reformed for the second time in 2000. Such sabbaticals from their career as Wire have served to sharpen the group's edge and focus, updating the tactics with which they pursue this shared project. Wire came to prominence through the cultural revolution of punk in the UK, the effects of which were felt throughout the latter half of the 1970s. Immediately fluent in the language of contrariness and paradox, Wire's very name was both industrial and poetic, blank and eerie. As evidenced by their two tracks on the compilation released in August 1977, The Roxy London WC2 Jan–Apr 77 (the brooding Lowdown and the instantly iconic, neurasthenic mini-drama 12XU) the group made a musical virtue of tension and a lyrical strength of ambiguity. More than any other group from that period, Wire embraced the purpose of punk as a minting of otherness and newness—as a response to the notion of modernity itself reaching critical mass. From a seamless fusion of contradictions (fast and slow, funny and menacing, soft and loud, gentle and angry, clever and dumb) the group created a singularity of sound and attitude which was utterly distinctive, precision channelled as though to concentrate its energy through highly sophisticated modes of constriction.

Here is the first instalment of the Norman Wisdom installation as it occured on Sunday 1st July 2007. the day of the smoking ban implementation (in confined public spaced). It feels a little like hoardin milk teeth or collating my own toilet paper (used). but on the other hand there is a real joy in seeing the space filled with human nonsense. I was very lucky in that the steps were the perfect for for the screens I made. As you'll see the fanzine pamphlet becomes a bit of a side show and the real work comes out of my struggle to relinquish control. having said that the pamphlet (in all good art shops) will hopefully have a ripple like effect.
