This is for my husband, who has just finished reading the new John Lennon biography and urges me to read it but...gee... it is just so heavy. What? 800-something pages? Maybe better read as a Kindle book. Anyway, once we were in Toronto staying at the same hotel where Lennon sat in bed for a spell and where this recording now embellished with art, was originally made by a 14 year-old. As first an artist, Lennon would appreciate the creative way the recording is presented in remixed form, using yet another medium - youTube, for his message.
So while I'm home alone getting physical therapy while the two college kids are off with Dad, I'm putting this up for him as I pick up that heavy Lennon tome. If you've been reading my posts this week, this is a progression of Lennon from music, then spoken words, to cloud, remixed with additive art worth. Not Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, but Lennon in the clouds...
Excellent!!!

This was fascinating. The artwork is very Monty-Pythonish. I'll have to go get the biography.
