It is said that the only thing that we can ever truly control in this World, is Our Own Thoughts and Actions. If every individual had true control over the Mind-Body-Soul connection, we could trigger a vital Paradigm Shift to uplift Humanity from its present course. Amidst global conflicts and destructive behaviours, we share this song CONTROL, a Call-to-Action: Stop the killing and fighting, Heal each other. Simple Words for a Seismic World. We must take control of Our lives and Respect Mother Earth. The challenge of Our Time. Aché
41-DAYZ began as an instrumental expression on ancient objects warehoused in museum basements all around the world, objects that were perhaps once a child's toy or an elder's heirloom. These objects often have numbers written onto them, permanent yet not always pertinent. 41-D was initially created as an emotional response to a series of objects in a Swedish museum that cried out for a new identity beyond the numbers; a yearning for 1 more day, a reminder of TIME; the human conflict btwn living NOW and trying to create a better future for 2MRW!
