Le dimensioni del mio caos (translatable as "The Size of My Chaos") is the fourth album by the Italian rapper Caparezza, released on April 11, 2008.
CapaRezza defines this concept as a "picture story sound". The characters of the story are as described in the CD booklet:
Ilaria, due to a worm-hole in time, finds herself catapulted from 1968 into the present. The story continues with the love of CapaRezza. Ilaria against that, conditioned by our society, refuses to go back to becoming a young hippie girl who follows all the fashions and trends of the moment. She loses her revolutionary spirit, and this ends with her marrying the politician Carneade, the "one man forehead." Carneade aims to build a space port, a great work but absolutely useless, as it is said to be intended to send sewage sludge into space, but in fact its real purpose is to win elections at the front. Meanwhile, Caparezza meets the working man Luigi delle Bicocche, defined modern hero of the precariousness that would work as its subject. Judged by the revolutionary leadership of course, Caparezza is arrested and is sentenced to hard labor in a "circus of mice". Meanwhile, Carneades has won the election with 100 per cent of the vote, while Luigi delle Bicocche creates a second passage in time that takes the world back to prehistoric times. There, a species of ape, the "bonobo", proves to have reached an evolutionary stage more advanced than people today. Some insights are based on the science fiction plot of 2001 A Space Odyssey.
La rivoluzione del sessintutto CapaRezza recalls the 1968 Italian shows of Jimi Hendrix and makes a comparison between the warm autumn revolution and sexual liberation that results in sexual phobia today, that justifies the pun title (as "Sixtyeight" in Italian is "Sessantotto", "Sex in everything" in Italian is "Sesso in tutto"). He also cites the groupie Cynthia Plaster Caster, who has become famous for having made some casts of the genitals of Hendrix and other artists. At the end of the track, emulating Hendrix performing the act of splitting the guitar on the banks of amplifiers, with this narrative pretext, he creates a path through space-time with the electric current generated, and meets Ilaria.
