Album Info

Release Date: 1995

Label: Dossier

This CD is compiled from the audio archive of Psychic TV, Genesis P-Orridge and the Transmedia Foundation. It is intended to be multi-functional and it is here to be re-abused through you. The raw materials, loops, sonic maps and trance routines included may be listened to as a Kaotic entertainment; as a navigational exploration of brain and expectation; or as a resource to be sampled, reworked, adjusted and processed by other individuals for their own personal works and their own ends. Any and all interpretations are valid. This NOT an indexed and formularised "Sampling CD". Rather, it is a description from a different perspective, of the eclectic and unique world which Psychic TV and their Closet Collaborators have inhabited in various media and incarnations from 1950 to the present. This is an Electric Newspaper, a speculative publication deprogrammed to preserve and make accessible to the maximum number of participating travellers, multiple brain-escapes, and audio-collisions in order to give the greatest potential stimulation and communication to all.

"It’s yours, because it's free!" Emmett Grogan of the Diggers 1967.

The interview included at the end of this publication is an Electric Newspaper exclusive. Never before published anywhere as either text, or audio. In it Genesis P-Orridge questions Brion Gysin about his various interactions with legendary Rolling Stone Brian Jones in Morocco in the 1960's, as part of his extensive research prior to recording the classic PTV single "Godstar". The interview was conducted in Hackney, London on the 10th July 1985. To our knowledge this is the only authentic document stating exactly how Brion Gysin experienced these events, previously only mythologised in both the Astory of Jajouka, and books on The Rolling Stones. On the original cassette box Brion wrote afterwards...
...NIL BONUM MORIENDI DIC ERUNT.
