Lyrics
From now on the secret language of
Cerebral art can no longer have currency
Pure plasticity will disencumber itself from the sediments of
Past culture and become a vitamin for our senses and our spirits
The plastic alphabet of universal application is not the contribution
Of a single creator but the sum emerging from the joint
Efforts of creators who have preceded, plus our own integrations
The polychrome cities of happiness shall one day be
Brought by birth into their magnificent diversity
On that day the united entities of our political and social
Organs, our universities and industries will have to accept
The imperative of a fundamental revolution in the plastic arts
To destroy the past and build the future
In one stroke would be unthinkable
We must live within the multiple space-time
Continuum, even if they contradict one another
We must jump quantically from one orbit to another, like electrons
Plastic creators based on mass media, reaching the sensibility of
The greatest number, are certainly more humane than specific art
Forms which are narrowly personal
And addressed only to the privileged
Nature creates the shapes of living organisms while man has invented
Flat surfaces on which his multidimensional spirit can shine
The superior quality party the totality of the universal
Languages that exist in their responsiveness to the
Intuitive subjective and intellectual objective modes
Only self-criticism can save the human race
Those for whom we labor will be ready to integrate
Themselves in the grandiose aquarium we are mapping out
Our integrations, our sounds, our art
Our visuals, are already preparing the way
Universalization does not imply leveling down, but it
Is a web of great complexity which enshrines manifest
Attainments and moves towards an ideal of understanding
