Rethink Forever is a piece combining live vocal sound with electronic sound. The electronic sound consists mostly of processed singing and speaking of the members of Musica Intima.

Anything that resembles choral singing in the electronic part is from a recording that Musica Intima made of Thomas Tallis’s beautiful short piece ‘If ye love me’ , although mostly so thoroughly processed that even Tallis himself (and his lawyers) probably wouldn’t recognize it.

Rethink Forever is a kind of ten commandments of love. This was inspired by the words of Tallis’s song- ‘If ye love me, keep my commandments’. I know, Tallis was talking about a different kind of love but...

The commandments are:

love over all ~ know need ~ learn hurt ~ get hard ~ get soft ~ see truth ~ study happiness ~ detect passion ~ understand freedom ~ rethink forever.
