LA RÉVOLUTION INTERDIMENSIONNEL

“But I gotta, kn-kn-kn-know what-what's your fan-ta-ta-sy” - Ludacris PART 1: ANDRÉ & THE ALIENS New Mexico, 1942. On a dusty road between Taos, and Roswell… Deep Night. And in our great solitude, we orbit. We? We, the translucents. The wireframe ones. We, the thousand-years young. The still air shifts beneath us—a car is seen [...]
