spring and all by colmkil

https://colmkil.bandcamp.com/album/spring-and-all

This EP is an adaptation and reinterpretation of William Carlos Williams’ 'Spring and All', written in the wake of World War I and the 1918 flu pandemic. The song titles and spoken words all come from the book. Every spring for the past eight years, I have read this book and have found it to be a deep well of inspiration and motivation, and a tool for resetting my relationship with my creativity and imagination. It is a work of art that confounds definition as a book of prose poems, or a manifesto, or any such confinement. This spring, in the midst of another pandemic, it is a reminder of history with an eye towards imagining a future. I hoped to capture something about this place where we are and something about an other place.
