encounters

Lynn's story: preparing consciousness to move out of body - journey prior to bodies death - let go - a journey in which you do not return to body, field of consciousness - a cord of consciousness.

A journey characterized by almost arriving, destination in sight but never achieved.... Unclear as it maybe - to document the sites of last utterances, the ambiguity, or uncertainty sets in, when one questions the last utterance, was it a final work, a last breath, a final ode... where were these marks made, and what is the importance of recording them? A connection to place, desire to mark things... ' look here, this sign post tells us where the wall once stood', we preserve pieces of it too remember. In this project I travel to the often unmarked sites,  to record the shadows.

Writing oneself to death: George Orwell (tuburculosis) went to the remote isle of Jura (Scotland) against all doctors advice, to complete what would become his final work, 1984. Far from medical aid, and anything else for that matter, accept the calling to complete the work, and the necessary conditions to do so. worth his life. What is it that drives this spark? To complete the master work that will outlive the creator. Hemmingway shot himself when he was no longer felt able to write, lie for one's work and one's work only.  The tension of death, the knowledge of its proximity, produces a need.
