Jaïa – Orchestra 2.0

Video | November 7, 2008 | Posted by Basilisk

Jaïa’s Orchestra 2.0 is easily one of my favourite songs of the last few years. Videos have been produced for the original as well as a remix by Nipp. First, Quapim (Lukas Opekar), the designer responsible for the stylish graphics long-associated with the Tribal Vision brand, ventures into animation with this excellent video for the radio edit of the Nipp remix released on the Cabaret compilation:

Secondly, here is a very peculiar video for an unreleased edit of the original (from Fiction), this time by the Grenoble-based group La Bande en Marge:

I really have no idea what to make of that.

The Noosphere

Quotation | November 8, 2008 | Posted by Basilisk

“It is possible that the noosphere contained thought patterns in the form of very weak energy until we developed radio transmission; whereupon the energy level of the noosphere went out of bounds and assumed a life of its own. It no longer served as a mere passive repository of human information (the ‘Seas of Knowledge’ which ancient Sumer believed in) but, due to the incredible surge of charge from our electronic signals and the information-rich material therein, we have given it power to cross a vast threshold; we have, so to speak, resurrected what Philo and other ancients called the Logos. Information has, then, become alive, with a collective mind of its own independent of our brains…”

— Philip K. Dick, Man, Android, and Machine
