In July of 2003, a documentary was broadcast on HBO while Conure was packing for a (cancelled) move to Berlin. "Paragraph 175" was a documentary portraying the Nazi persecution of homosexuals because of Paragraph 175 of the German Penal Code of 1871. Conure knew this persecution had existed, but little beyond that. This documentary inspired him to create a new audio work as a way to interest others as ignorant as he to watch the film, but primarily as a way to portray the feelings the documentary brought forth in Conure.
