"Word Origins consists of improvisations recorded in my house during the current lockdown. Each one was recorded at around 17.00-18.00 pm. I allowed myself to just get my cello, sit, start the record button and play, just once, each day. I wanted to make concise, stream of consciousness music, in some ways it relates to a lot of the paintings I have been making recently, but also the poetry I have been reading. The titles of each track are taken from words in The Sonnets by American poet Ted Berrigan, which were written in the 60’s and constructed by chance operations." - Anton Lukoszevieze
