Vidéo : Peter Gabriel – Panopticom

Peter Gabriel, 73 ans est de nouveau au sommet avec son dernier album lentement mûri, i/o. Pendant que les grincheux conchient l’IA fossoyeur de la création, le Gab est toujours in & out, témoin de son temps sur Panopticom avec sa vidéo réalisée par Stephen Grzanowski alias Vnderworld grâce à l’interface Web open source, Automatic1111. Le 25 avril 1986, sortait Sledgehammer et son clip incroyable en stop motion fabriqué par les studios Aardman. Presque 40 plus tard, l’acuité de l’archange Gabriel est toujours aussi licide, Panopticom évoque notre société de surveillance, de plus en plus carcérale. Les dystopies de Zamiatine, d’Orwell, d’Huxley ou de Damasio nous ont rattrapés.

Peter Gabriel propose son album i/o en deux mix, Bright Side et Dark Side chez Real World.

Peter Gabriel – Panopticom (Dark-Side Mix)

In the air the smoke cloud takes its form
All the phones take pictures while it’s warm

Panopticom
Let’s find out what’s going on
Panopticom
Let’s see where clues are leading
Panopticom
Won’t you show us what’s going on?
Panopticom
So how much is real?
And we pour the medicine down
While we watch the world around us
We got witness on the ground
Takin’ in the evidence
And we reach across the globe
We got all the information flowing
You face the mother lode
Tentacles around you
Around you

From above and deep below the ground
It was in Berlin
That all the evidence was found
Look from the street
And we look down from the skies
See through the barriers
We can see through all those lies

Panopticom
Let’s find out what’s going on
Panopticom
Let’s see where clues are leading
Panopticom
Won’t you show us what’s going on?
Panopticom
So how much is real?

And we pour the medicine down
While we watch the world around us
We got witness on the ground
Takin’ in the evidence
And we reach across the globe
We got all the information flowing
You face the mother lode
Tentacles around you
Around you
Around you
Around you
Around you
