Sparta

"This False World" is a posthumous collaboration between composer David Douglas Thompson and poet C.S. Thompson.
My father, David Douglas Thompson, was a brilliant composer of dark ambient, neo-classical and occasionally even EBM-inspired electronic music. We often discussed the possibility of a collaboration, and after he passed away in October 2006, I began to put this project together, using selections from his final album "Whom the Gods Would
Destroy," as well as pieces from his earlier albums. Combining these with selections from my own poetry and slideshows of paintings by William Blake and Henry Fuseli, I created these videos.
