pebble-clowns in paper-boats 'poet + ai = Objects in Space and Time'

Описание: Objects in Space and Time is an experiment, an exploration into language and sound.
Can a poem be modified and transformed into a song? Can a poet direct an ai to capture the mood of the modified poem via genre, mood and tempo prompts.
How does the poem transform within a musical environment? What new creature is created?

Lyrics written by a poet (kylie brusaschi)
music prompted by a poet, composed by an ai who I call 'Gertrude'

Lyrics:


an obstacle with flesh inside
some hearts like to double-down

trails are always made
from pebble-clowns in paper-boats

push them down the river
push them down the river

to solve the puzzle
all my characters are drowsy
heads flop
spines ache
heads flop and spines ache

what does one do
when the last morsel
has already been consumed?

find the counter point
a counter point
cut from glass

find the office marked
objects unclaimed
objections unclaimed

trails are made
pebble-clowns in paper-boats

push them down the river
push them down the river

watch them go!
as you run alongside them
like some eight-year-old child
floating a leaf
down the gutter
after a storm

those were the days
yes, they were the days

now we exist as the obstacle
with flesh inside

trails are made
