"I can speak in many tongues like a snake. Sometimes I wear too much make up and look and dance like a soviet Estrada star. My voice is bit weird and not much of it is always understood. I’ve always been bit too many and too much to translate. Maybe we can feel it instead? Me screaming my unknown language to you through layers of cultural de-fragmentation. You there watching me for 10 minutes and reading what's there. A possibility of intercultural time-travel from my heart to yours. XOX, your Estrada star. "
