184: An interlude

Posted on by

I have been sitting here, longer than I can say.
It started as just a pause
to my day, but slowly, I stayed
seated.

the bugs at my window seem to be trying to reach the
jade plants just inside.
as I try to breathe the air.
just outside.

the light changes, my eyes adjust.
the winds shift.
I can see it in the trees.
maybe tomorrow I will stand on the deck, but today.
today I will watch the sun awake from here.
an interlude.

This is partially influenced by the book Thought-Forms by Annie Besant and C.W. Leadbeater, written in 1901. In short, the book explores the visual manifestations of thoughts and the notion that they exist as objects. In parallel to these occult practices, I have been thinking about outer space (again). Specifically, on the ISS, there is no silence but a constant hum of fans and motors.

So I set up four fans, turned my radio between stations, and recorded for about a half-hour. Out of that recording I created episode 157 and other forms is in between– one part artificial hum of spacecraft, one part thought made into sound (with lots of EQ and just a touch of reverb)
