Weird Fishes Arpeggi : drôles de poissons (Radiohead)

 "I can't sleep with your memory"

 Weird Fishes / Arpeggi were caught in my top ten (and more) net song list. The song is from 2007 album "In Rainbow" by English rock band Radiohead. It popped up (once again) this summer on Mount Lozère (mont-Lozère, mont Losera). 

Grizac Castle, home of  Pope Urban V, born in 1310 as Guillaume de Grimoard

I was up to Grizac Castle (France, Occitanie, Lozère) from La Vernède (in a house, where very seemingly Robert Louis Stevenson stopped at with she-donkey Modestine), along GR 670, where Pope Urban V was born in the château in 1310 with the name Guillaume de Grimoard.

 
Grizac, Maison des totems (Jac cactus Mauduy)

One of the first houses welcomes you with "outside art" or "art brut", made of carved/painted wooden cuts. A home for Jacques (Cactus) Mauduy. Suddenly... weird fishes:

I like synesthesia: when your nerve system routes signals through different/unrelated media. Like our senses get bitten by the worms... and weird fishes. Here are a couple of versions and nice covers. One of the weirdest being Weird Fishes flying animation by Tobias Stretch

For electro-fans (summer is here), the Arpeggi adaptation by Kelly Lee Owens in her Inner songs is great. Here are a handful of excellent versions:
