Zero and One a human-machine hybrid project presents 'Just like a Rainbow' a song made using AI technology with original Music ideas and original Lyrics by Max Corradi.

Like a rainbow in the sky,
a mirage in the desert,
or a dream at night.
Like a magical apparition
visible but without any existence:
think of me like this.
Do not try to hold me, you will not succeed,
do not cling to me:
how can one cling to the trail
left by a bird in the sky?
Do not think of getting something from me:
I have nothing to give.
Do not react to me with attraction or rejection,
they do not exist in my nature.
Do not look for me, you will not find me,
do not reject me, I am part of you.
Love me as you would love your reflection in a mirror:
without attraction or rejection.
I am already part of you,
what is the point of desiring me?
If you can love yourself to the fullest,
then you will be able to love me too
who am your reflection.
Do not think of me, I am not knowable
through thoughts or concepts,
but do not reject me either
when you see me laughing or crying
in some corner of the world.
When you no longer have any reaction to seeing me
but not even a cold indifference,
then you will know who I am: you will know me
and consequently you will finally know yourself.
