touch...live performance for book instruments and voice inspired by Sally Potters film Yes. Isolations: these books can be played as musical instruments for their sound, and also be improvised as a musical score.
body gone.... i won't die, i won't go anywhere, i'll be here..... but don't ask me anything... i won't answer....
touch... imprint ...karmic vows, since time without beginning, rising out of greed, hatred, and jealousy, through body, speech and mind...
touch...thou shalt not.....
breathing in...breathing out...rising and falling.... paper tapestries ...humbling oneself to the practice of sewing...
touch...the traces she left on her path through life were so faint as to have been almost effaced together.... she was only ever connected to the world in the most fleeting ways....nowhere was she able to settle......

ethers in empty rooms...after handing back the keys, quiet memories linger in a once busy space
...mandala, ...ovum, fallopian, fimbriae...
...the lone and level sands stretch far away. Percy Bysshe Shelley
...floating in salty water.... just drifting along in summer dreams, sabbatical, taiwan
...a beating beating sun...
