In 1995 Alan Moore had recently "come out" as a practicing magician. He did a spoken word performance called The Birth Caul (A Shamanism of Childhood) with music by David J and Tim Perkins, which was soon released on CD. It was staged at the Old County Court in Newcastle-upon-Tyne on 18 November 1995.

The birth caul is a thin piece of placenta sometimes present at birth covering the face like a veil. It is kept traditionally as a good luck charm. When Moore's mother dies he finds her birth caul amongst her effects. The Caul represents a map of humanity which Moore proceeds to read from.[1] The text is essentially an examination of the connections between our language, our identity and our perceptions of the world. The narration regresses from early adulthood, adolescence, childhood, infancy and prenatal existence in a quest for a primitive consciousness existing before language.[2] Ultimately the quest aborts as there are no words to describe that consciousness.

In 1998, after completing From Hell, Campbell visited Moore and he played the CD recording to him. He asked Alan Moore if he could do a pictorial setting and he published it himself in 1999.[3]

In 2003 an essay, "Unwrapping the Birth Caul", written by English teacher and comics reviewer Marc Singer, was published in Alan Moore: Portrait of an Extraordinary Gentleman.

Around Absolute Zero (6:55)

Since Saburo Teshigawara formed the dance company KARAS in Tokyo in 1985, the group's aim has been to seek a new form of beauty, one that contains the essence of human existence in its natural and manufactured environment. As a dance maker, Teshigawara's work and process spring not from conventional ideas established through history, but from his search for still hidden possibilities through action in choreography, art, music, design and thought. His approach is closer to the freedom and radical spirit of on-the-edge experimental music, being one of continually reinventing and rearranging ideas of dance and of expression. In Absolute Zero, Teshigawara attempts to achieve the impossible quality of perfect stillness and order amid the chaos of the physical world. A work of contrasts within and between its movement, sound and stage designs and its textures, Absolute Zero is the apotheosis of this artist's continual quest for beauty and discovery. To accompany the piece's worldwide touring, a number of international sound artists were invited to respond to the theme, 'absolute zero', with new compositions. This CD brings together eight artists whose work shares with Teshigawara's sensibilities of concept, aesthetic and innovation. From Biosphere to :zoviet * France:, the contributing artists are at the forefront of electronica, their sounds sketching subtle approaches to the absolute."
