Feeding myself from the 2001 images of different Transglobe Films teams around all the corners of the planet, I had the feeling of a never ending musical creation.
I enjoyed very much my particular travelling way, and in some case, even I could get onto some of those trips, a great opportunity for me
to smell and feel by myself those mindblowing Lost Worlds. Travelling has been allways for me one of my vital preferences. One gets further away from his ideas, convictions and culture routines, in order to feel and analize them in a different way..., and from another place.
With regard to the music, my bigger interest is in that inexplicable thing that all the musics has in common, from one side of the planet to the other. Africa, Asia, Europe, Oceania, America...
Playing to put them together and create that inexplicable feeling has allways been for me a challenge, a delight and clearly...,
a game in which the rules go beyond the world of reason.
LOST WORLDS
26 x 52’
Wild Life, Ethnology, Anthropology
2001-2002
We live in aworld that gets smaller every day. The media, intercontinental transport and the exporting, and mixing
of cultures make borders seem increasingly closer and more diffuse. As a consequence, there is a tendency to think
that there are hardly any areas left on the planet untouched by the influence of civilised man, places that still follow
the millenary guidelines of their own history. But nothing could be further from the truth.
Lost Worlds will introduce us to such places where times seems to have stood still, immune to the aggressive
cultural tendencies and techniques of the western world. They are places that follow their own course, their own
evolutionary and cultural paths where species, including man, have found adaptive solutions different than ours.
Nature in its wildest state, the rarest species on earth, the most isolated indigenous races, the ruins of ancient lost
empires, history and legend: these are the pillars of a new documentary series which will show the permanence of
diversity and the mystery of a planet which still harbours fascinating Lost Worlds within.
