Martin Pistorius: How my mind came back to life — and no one knew

contact@ted.com (TED Conferences LLC) — Thu, 01 Oct 2015 15:48:04 +0000

Imagine being unable to say, "I am hungry," "I am in pain," "thank you," or "I love you,” -- losing your ability to communicate, being trapped inside your body, surrounded by people yet utterly alone. For 13 long years, that was Martin Pistorius’s reality. After contracting a brain infection at the age of twelve, Pistorius lost his ability to control his movements and to speak, and eventually he failed every test for mental awareness. He had become a ghost. But then a strange thing started to happen -- his mind began to knit itself back together. In this moving talk, Pistorius tells how he freed himself from a life locked inside his own body.

10 Fun Facts You Probably Didn't Know about Pink Floyd's 'Dark Side of the Moon'

John VE — Thu, 01 Oct 2015 12:12:00 +0000

Cover art for the album The Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd, designed by Storm Thorgerson, drawn by George Hardie.

The Dark Side of the Moon is the eighth studio album by the English progressive rock band Pink Floyd, released on 1 March 1973. It was an immediate success; it topped the Billboard Top LPs & Tapes chart for one week and remained in the charts for 741 weeks from 1973 to 1988. With an estimated 50 million copies sold, it is Pink Floyd's most commercially successful album and one of the best-selling albums worldwide.

1. Paul McCartney ended up on the cutting-room floor.

Dark Side of the Moon made brilliant use of voices throughout the album, and most of them came from folks who simply happened to be hanging around Abbey Road when it was recorded. Roadies, doormen, and even the members of Wings were posed questions that lyricist Roger Waters had written on cue cards, like "When was the last time you were violent and were you in the right?" and "What does the phrase 'The Dark Side of the Moon' mean to you?"

Paul McCartney was among those interviewed, but his voice didn't make the cut. Perhaps Sir Paul was being a tad too guarded or cheeky with his answers: Waters found he got better, weirder stuff from guys like the studio's Irish doorman, Gerry O'Driscoll, who let the band know that, matter of fact, it was all dark.

2. The album was nominated for a single Grammy... and not for the band.

The only man honored for his work on the album with a Grammy nomination was its producer, Alan Parsons, who parlayed his newfound notoriety into his own successful recording group, the Alan Parsons Project. Never best-known for their humble attitudes toward creative credit, Floyd's members have downplayed Parsons' role in capturing Dark Side in the 40 years since, although they did ask him back for Wish You Were Here. (He declined.)

In truth, Parsons probably did deserve this Grammy. The engineer made use of some of the most cutting-edge studio techniques at the time to create the 16-track, quadrophonic mixes. Not bad at all, when you consider everything was being put together using tape and razor blades.

3. It's been 21 years since "Pink Floyd" performed the album in full.

Dark Side of the Moon was performed by the David Gilmour-led incarnation of Pink Floyd on select dates of the band's final tour in 1994. If it doesn't quite feel that long, it's probably because various members have played suites of music from the album live on tour several times since, including Roger Waters taking the entire album around the world with his solo band between 2006 and 2008. That tour hit the Woodlands on May 4, 2008.

4. Clare Torry was initially shocked the band liked her "Great Gig in the Sky" vocals.

The original version of "The Great Gig In the Sky" that the band worked out live was essentially an organ solo featuring tape loops of Bible passages and religious speeches. For the album version, the lead was switched to piano, but the band couldn't find any samples they liked. They decided to try a singer.

Parsons found Clare Torry, a 22-year-old session vocalist. Unbeknownst to many who would later dry-hump to her voice, Torry was extremely white and extremely British. The band was largely at a loss on what instructions to give, so Torry imagined herself as an instrument and tried to interpret the song's theme of mortality.

After two full takes, the band dismissed her. She assumed they hated it and forgot about the session. While they played it cool, though, Pink Floyd was delighted with Torry's singing. She didn't realize they'd used her voice until she saw the album in a store and found her name in the credits.

5. It's not the only Floyd album acid freaks sync up with movies.

Ever since the mid-'90s, stoners, trippers and the extraordinarily bored have been blowing their own minds by syncing up Dark Side with MGM's classic The Wizard of Oz film and watching a few coincidental synchronicities occur, including the Scarecrow's brainless dance during "Brain Damage."

While it's cool to think about the band orchestrating a bizarre soundtrack to a golden Hollywood oldie, Waters, Gilmour and the others have bristled at the very suggestion that their opus had anything to do with the Emerald City.

The real mindfuck, of course, is that Floyd fans have actually tried syncing up other albums and films, including The Wall with Disney's Alice in Wonderland and Meddle with 2001: A Space Odyssey. Is it a stretch? Um, yeah. Lots of luck getting high enough for this sort of experimentation to be enjoyable in the slightest.
