We recoup one of the interviews that Irina mentioned in her article. The one that Paloma Chamorro made with Genesis P. Orridge on television after a live concert with his group Psychic TV , on the cult TV programme, &#8220;la Edad de Oro&#8221;. Irina also mentioned another song by Genesis, in relation to the Pandrogyny project, &#8220;United&#8221;, with Throbbing Gristle.
