About Me |
|
We Live in Caves is a solo project that draws influence from both live ambient, drum & bass and electronica artists, and live post-rock bands. As far as the animals of this world go, human beings are the most intelligent and advanced. In our opinion, of course. But this makes me wonder. If we're so smart, why are we destroying the only place we can call home? I woke up this morning, with blocked sinuses, took a look outside my window, blew my nose, and thought about how beautiful the world can be. This planet has it's own schedule, and system of keeping things working. We don't seem to be capable of following this scheme, and prefer to reject and destroy. In the daylight, everything is energised. Come the evening, the general atmosphere of all things combined seems to have relaxed, and is cooling down from the heat and energy of the day. At night time, if you're far enough from the city, it's dark and cool, you can listen to the night time sounds, and look at the stars. Something as simple as the changes of the day... something so easy to flow with and follow, but we can't. We build huge, cavernous buildings that block out the sunlight and keep us droning focused with sterile white lights, in the evening we're stuck in cars, waiting to get home, and for the night time we've erected huge street lights, which in turn block out the real light, the true light, of the sky. I know people who are afraid of insects, or getting their feet covered in mud and dirt. I think if I had to live in a forest or the wilderness with nothing but my wits, teeth and opposable thumbs, I'd die within a short time. That terrifies me. Even the nature people, the outdoorsman and the nature girl, have their Cape Union Mart products and their bad red laced hiking boots. Landrovers have become symbols of status, I doubt any of the trophy wives and business men driving them could even get themselves over a speedbump, let alone a mountain pass. No matter how smart we think we are, no matter how advanced we've become, we still live in caves. We've just covered them in "Morrocan Gold" and "Fresh Cream" by Dulux, and built a fire in every room. Now obviously I've ignored the desperate instinct of survival. People have to adapt to the world and keep themselves fat and warm, that's true, but it's because they have to adapt to this ever changing society that they're all struggling in the first place. Just look at property. How can someone own a slice of land the size of Constantia Village, or Canal Walk, while some have to sleep on the streets and in doorways, during the coldest of winters? We kicked the rock, and now we complain about the landslide. I love watching nature programs where they speed up the change of seasons, or the process of a growing blade of grass. It reminds me that we all need to slow down, take a deep breath, and reunite ourselves with the rest of the world. |
