nuclear families give birth of no more than 2 since the States regulates child bearing if I don't like you, I'll kill you then clone you and relieve me of my guilt why he's nothing like you except the same face I detest were they on to something? did Heaven's Gate know something we didn't? Are Earth's final lashes given by the tail end of a comet? Who profits most from our paranoia? revolting in it's inhumanity  influence spans eight arms of the sun cult of emptiness sprinkling synthetic static a disregard of quality in its purest form a poem of nothing a torrent of ridicule  followed by a roar of laughter much worse  a despair longer than its length paradox of juxtapositions parallel bypass recycled over drums teeth rattling regimen pinnacle of a  peninsula checking the inside of its eyelids for it's sweet repose lost all its charm unresolved we died for freedom once now dying for nothing robbed of gunpoint of reason a faith slowly dissolved a violation of dignity precipitating a crisis isolated tremors are ideas encapsulated in the shape of an elongated tear erupts like blood of an artery an escape by entrance a slow struggle  intertwined in ways in which it was not built lifeless in motion withheld denied of its volume a fatigue under the forecast of dawn no longer wet with the kiss of bright expectations or hope of gathering audience integrity betrayed its participants thirst in its tears no pays attention because they don't expect much and plead for a return of the same on invitation the acrobat of death bestows his gift of sleep exalt his glaring error a smoulder deceit cast by their own reflection caught in its own trap a gesture passing acts as a cry of exo-methylated spirits exempt from duty with exonerate arms grasping their last embrace waving the germ of its own destruction a used tea bag antiquated hard to conform to the necessities of translation a audacity aroused tremendous enthusiasm embody the fruit of illuminations harnessed by provoking fidelity flaunted by alienating on the brink of abyss one leap, entry is free to proceed in exhilarating abandon forward as a call to arms a desire lying dormant repel against the avid trade of stench as a roar in the reign of silence ventilator crash scars dethroned untying a mass of knots that don't unravel is sparse moments from corridors brutal display of contours gleaming angles surged forward so immersed furiously in acceleration, not even fearing it might split the skin a 40 ft. dive in a glass of water a lost cause - at their mercy  pitted against odds tailored in deficit  who casts shadows looming over approval a constraint constructed and crippled by remorse  mechanisms in thought explore the perfect sculpture a soft circuit shy and self-conscious, that hides behind words like closing a door just to make sure no one is looking IN

NEW PROJECT IN SEARCH FOR FUTUR FORMS
This is the first of a series of singles a uncommon encounter between rap/spoken word and abstract electronic sound composition. Science fiction and it's anchor into reality is the thematic thread that will link the pieces together.

BEANS is a leading figure of avant-garde rap in the United States, a founder member of Anti-Pop Consortium in the 90s.

NICOLAS BERNIER is known for his sound experiments, internationally recognize as a composer and creator of digital audiovisual performances and installations. Collaborating with poets and vocal artists, he breaks with the minimalist tendency he has developed over the past decade.

FORMES FUTURES (futur forms) is the title of the project.

FORM/E/1 is the title of this first iteration of the project.

Futur forms are yet to come as they will be created progressively in the next few months or years. Nothing is planned in advanced: new singles will be launched according to the progress of the collaborations.
