about

ɑɹ.ˈkeɪ.ɪk presents amedee breaux’s ‘ma blond est partie’ deconstructed and looped ad infinitum in reflection on venus & all the girls whose souls soar forever. remembered as beautiful always.

‘my blond went away and left me’
23 minutes for 23 years
tʰreːˈnoː.di.a in four movements

I. prelude postmortem: ‘what hope and what future am i going to have?’
they found her body on christmas day. unclaimed, prepared for cremation by police.

II. the ballroom eternal: ‘pretty blond look what you’ve done’
robbed of death; when her soul left her body, it shattered the sky.

III. a beauty unbelievable: ‘pretty blond you’ve left me all alone’
as the wind blew through her hair, the leaves stayed still.

IV. “make myself complete”
the ball is over. get home safe.
