There’s a lot that can be said about the Celestial Experience. Yet it begs the question; where’s everybody else we normally hear making cameos?
Truth is that question can’t be answered without stating the fact that being involved with such a project would most likely have one’s job or company taken away from them by the higher ups. It could hinder one's academic prospects.
They’d be banned from their church or told they need an intervention because their brain has been infected by devils or maybe, just maybe if they’re lucky a national security agency might come knocking at their door looking to decapitate them and their family… it doesn’t get more awesome than that.
But wait. Can we get rid of the double standard? Why’s it okay when that guy says this, but that guy can’t say that?
It’s fair to assume that everyone withdrew their efforts after seeing the scripts.
This is the kind of talk that would’ve got one's tongue slit way back then and now would definitely get ones Instagram handle suspended indefinitely.
Or maybe these high-ranking associates trusted with the sonic weren’t available.
This project is a two-man effort, key voices are missing yet the production and storyline makes that hard to notice, the organization is as strong as it has ever been.
The spoken word is an assault at systems ranging from theology to politics, economics and optimism as means to an end, ironically these are systems quintessential arts© is built on however that doesn’t mean a jab can’t be targeted at them, so they straighten up a little.
“Finally, they caught up with the times” is what a frequent listener would take note of, the staticky sound is gone, there’s no distortion. The records no longer sound like they were recorded on wax, the boy is now a man. Gone are the days. In with the new, out with the old.
Illustrious, cinematic and creative in every sense of those words, the project doesn’t fall short of anything, if anything you’d long for an expanded edition but then again, “half short twice strong” son, this was the last trick up the sleeve.
Au Revoir.
Quintessential Arts is a multidisciplinary omnipresent artistic organisation - the name is derived from the fifth essence interpreted as æther in addition to the four elements thought to compose the heavenly bodies in Ancient Greek philosophy. The organisation is driven by reinvention, reinterpretation and recreation of older works encoded by its garments and decoded through the sonic. Just as science and religion go hand in hand, the garments go hand in hand with the sonic as well as other mediums such as literary pieces used to set the stage for every season respectively thus setting it apart from what the masses have become accustomed to. Quintessential Arts is an organisation whose purpose is to challenge the natural order of things, be the voice of reason and critique, make those that don’t identify with the status quo identify themselves with it.
Quintessential Arts is a multidisciplinary omnipresent artistic organisation founded August 8th, 2020 in Johannesburg South, South Africa.
