...You Crazy Diamond.
Last monday was the anniversary of the birth of Tulsa. A scientific genius who invented amongst other things the term "microtulsa" which measures the ambient threat to the protesters in Bantry for example. His death got me thinking of how lives intertwine and brought me to wanting to mention the passing of Barrett a few days earlier. Tulsa lived most of his life in the USA but never disclaimed his twin Croatian / Serbian heritage on the contrary saying he loved both his "birth countries" equally. Thus last Monday the Belgrade Airport saw representatives from both Croatia and Serbia change the name to Tulsa airport in his memory. Tulsa was supposedly working on a "Death Ray" at his death, which led to the FBI seizing and confiscating all his papers, research that they still have classifed as "above top secret".
But apart from inventing AC electricty and death rays (which the press ofthe time called a "peace ray") Tulsa also pioneered the psychedelik orb - where a current jumps from a central coil to the outer sphere - and in some ways Syd Barrett played his part in making people want one of those pschedelik orbs and lava lamps (which were more a commercial interpretation of the Soviet thermodynamic and chaos theoretician Pyrogine) in their homes.
And yes kids - there really was a time when people lay about on synthetic furry rugs, wearing very little if any clothing, gurgling to themselves with happy smiles on their faces and eyes the size of saucers.
& it was all mostly innocent post war generation fun.
RIP.

alas our good Kaspar is dead.
who will now carry the burning banner hidden in the pigtail of clouds
to play the daily black joke
who will now turn the coffee mill in the primeval barrel
who will now entice the idyllic deer out of the petrified paper box.
who will now confound the ships on the high seas by addressing them as
parapluie and the winds by calling them keeper of bees ozone spindle
your highness
alas alas alas our good Kaspar is dead. holy ding dong kaspar is dead.

why have you left us. into what shape has your beautiful great soul migrated.
have you become a star or a watery chain attached to a hot whirlwind light or a transparent brick on the groaning drum of jagged being.....

The death of Syd struck a chord with me and my mid-month podcast at The Best Radio You Have Never Heard (http://www.bestradiopodcast.com) is a tribute to the great rock visionary.
"Here To Do My Parts" is a tribute to Syd Barrett. Even though of course there is some Pink Floyd music in the show, it is more of a tribute to Syd’s vision. I like to think of it as traveling music for Syd’s iPod as he makes the trek to the Gates of Dawn, or perhaps some gardening music for the great beyond as, in his recent past, gardening was one of Syd’s few hobbies.
Have a listen and let me know what you think.
