Cosmogramma
''Cosmogramma'' is the third studio album by American music producer Flying Lotus, released on May 3, 2010, by Warp Records. The title comes from an incident when he was listening to an Ashram lecture from his great-aunt Alice Coltrane and he misheard the words "cosmic drama" as cosmogramma. The album entered and peaked at number 60 on the UK Albums Chart.
== Background ==
On October 31, 2008, Ellison's mother died suddenly of complications from diabetes. This was only a year and some months after his great-aunt Alice Coltrane passed. "I decided that if I was going to speak after that experience," said Ellison, "it better be something honest, and deeper than a record that was just made for the times. I wanted to do something that made her proud. Something that could last forever, hopefully."
The title "''Cosmogramma''" is a obstruction of ''Cosmic Drama''. As Flying Lotus put it, "My aunt had an ashram in Agoura full of devotees... And I was listening to one of her recorded discourses talking about how once this earthly experience is over, we won't be wearing our costumes anymore, playing parts in this 'cosmic drama,' she called it. "But I thought she said 'cosmogramma.' That word haunted me for a long time until I found out it actually exists. It refers to the study of the universe, and heaven and hell as well."
The album came at a time where Ellison's personal life had gone through significant changes, both his mother and aunt had passed, and up to this period he had gained critical acclaim for his past work on "Los Angeles". ''Los Angeles'' had made a huge impact on the Los Angeles Beat Scene, and Ellison's music was appearing on features for Adult Swim. From this point of anticipation, and the timing of his mother's passing, the timing was ideal for his creative growth. ''Cosmogramma'' marked a shift in Ellison's writing from laptop-based work using programs such as Ableton Live to a live band, which he named ''INFINITY'' -or- ''∞''.
