Plastination
One of the more gloomy tracks, 'Plastination' was inspired by the works of Gunther von Hagens, the anatomist who invented the plastination technique. The technique is brilliant and has forever enede the age of specimen is tubes. But von Hagens did not stop there. Somewhere along the way, he started creating art with these cadavers. This, of course, has lead to quite a lot of controversy. I am both disgusted and fascinated (if it did not provoke me, I would not have done a song about it).
Now Roy Glover - Gunther von Hagens'competitor - brings his exhibition 'Bodies' to Cophenhagen. Once again I am disgusted, but I think I have to go see what it is...
