about

"Don't bend; don't water it down; don't try to make it logical; don't edit your soul. Rather, follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly." - Franz Kafka

'Ouroboros Distance' : The title describes the recurring loops over epochs of time and the arch-like form of the overall work. The arch-like form being the return and the work's resolving into itself - much like the Ouroboros which eats its own tail, a symbol of infinity or eternal returns.
Catalogue numbers: DMR-220-224.

First recorded in 2003 - edited and remixed 2011-14.
All instruments and original sounds by Epoch Collapse.

Cover art and design by Epoch Collapse.
The cover art is a photomontage created from both the earliest known image of the Ouroboros, and a 17th century engraving.
From the Encyclopaedia: "Engraving of an wyvern-type ouroboros by Lucas Jennis, in the 1625 alchemical tract De Lapide Philosophico. The figure serves as a symbol for mercury."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"The Ouroboros or uroborus (/ˌ(j)ʊərəˈbɒrəs, uːˈrɒbərɒs/) is an ancient symbol depicting a serpent or dragon eating its own tail. Originating in ancient Egyptian iconography, the ouroboros entered western tradition via Greek magical tradition and was adopted as a symbol in Gnosticism and Hermeticism and most notably in alchemy."

"The first known appearance of the ouroboros motif is in the Enigmatic Book of the Netherworld, an ancient Egyptian funerary text in KV62, the tomb of Tutankhamun, in the 14th century BCE."
