  LILIACEA - Rede/Speech XIII
Blixa recorded a rapid flowing string of the initials A, G, T and C. In earlier performances he has tried to clone the code for a human being with the code for a pigeon in an attempt to gain wings, but he didn't do that this evening.
Blixa was thrilled by the idea in the structure: 3 rows of 4 pillars bore the temple, each pillar bore the name of an astronomer.
Blixa saw the colours with the words, so it was obvious for him that those words had to be in those colours, he knew something about colour analysis of words.

 Blixa Bargeld
Blixa Bargeld (born Christian Emmerich in Berlin on January 12, 1959) is probably best known as a founding member of the German group Einsturzende Neubauten and the idiosyncratic guitarist in Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds.
Bargeld continued to join The Bad Seeds during this period for albums (The First Born Is Dead, Kicking Against the Pricks, Your Funeral, My Trial, Tender Prey) and tours.
Throughout the 1990s, Bargeld balanced work with the two bands while maintaining a schedule that included film roles, writing, lecture and panel appearances, spoken word dates, and numerous extracurricular music and theater projects.

And of course I stuck around, despite a killer migraine, to hear Blixa Bargeld of Einstürzende Neubauten and Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds fame provide a spoken word performance.
I do have some interesting facts to relay: “bargeld” means “money” in German, and “blixa,” in another language which I forget right now, means “pen.” So the next time you see Blixa, be sure to call him Uniball Yen or Bic Buck.
