Unsounds bringen gerade eine CD heraus, die auf einer Zusammenarbeit des Dichters Gabriele Tinti, des auch als Rezitator in Erscheinung tretenden Fotografen und Filmemachers Roger Ballen und des u.a. von Zu her bekannten Musikers Massimo Pupillo basiert. Die ersten beiden der drei um die zwanzigminütigen Stücke vertonen Gedichte aus Tintis Lyrikband The Earth Will come To Laugh and To Feast mit Illustrationen Ballens (Powerhouse Books, New York, 2020) – in den Texten reflektiert das lyrische Ich über seine Ideen zum prähistorischen Menschen und dessen Bezug zum Töten und zur Transzendenz. “Primordial Man was the consumer of the divine”, heißt es vom Autor. In him, in his art, there was a constant exchange of energy with the sacred. 
Caves were probably necropolises: the dead were taken there and fed with the flesh and blood of an animal divinity that was sacrificed as bearer of unifying strength. Animam pro anima. Cor pro corde. As an intensified, repeated, primary act, it became a rite and consequently a cult. The entire figurative pantheon of Paleolithic man seems intended as a fulfilment of that rite. Man replicated the horror of killing with his signs and his pictures on the cave walls, freeing himself from the terror. Art then really did come to grips with the world, a laceration bearing the memory of the violence done to existing creatures. It was desire, prayer, wound, sore, sign produced on the simulacra of the bodies of animals and, at times, of men. What have we done, what will we do in the years to come if not to try to repeat, to relive this act of our beginning?”. Ein weiteres Stück ist ein Score Pupillos zu Ballems frühem Kurzfilm Ill Wind (1972). Das Album ist auch digital erhältlich.
