Its Own Infinite Flower is the performing moniker of Tasho Nicolopulos in techno ambient guise. The name that comes from Aleister Crowley’s 1905 ode to the Rosicrucian ‘Rosa Mundi’ and a symbol of the meeting ground where esoteric and erotic semiotics overlap. In similar fashion Nicolopulos’s synth explorations, which XLR8R calls “crystalline cosmic fuzz” approach performance as a ritual mode similar to a seance or a conjuration. Nicolopulos is a fixture in the Bay Area underground music scene and is one third of promoter trio Hostile Ambient Takeover (another reference, this time to the 2002 Melvins album) together with C.L.A.W.S and Solar.
