This has been one of those weeks when the life of the mind overtakes me. It plays tricks on me as I wait for a sign, a moment, an act. Perhaps that is the problem: my mind has been focussed on that action, that is to say: future plans - tan any present project. That is apart from the usual blindly sentimental process of perpetuating life: maintaining my physical presence- keeping it one step away from total disrepair. I look out beyond the aching plains towards the roar of the ocean contemplating the depth of the waters. It has a terrifying and yet calming effect. I continue blindly asking myself how to move forth. What direction for this next wave of passion (?) Perhaps my body's rhythms are directing my mind's thoughts yet again chained to something inexplicably base and yet vital. You've heard it before. The view to the horizon line unblocked by buildings untarnished by memory. Will I be left here to sort out all the pieces I tried to put away? Spots of memory I have yet to understand - yet to - but it all takes time.
It always began with a view - an attempt to evoke a particular mood more than anything else. The silence that unfolds and slowly kills me - on one level conversation is good so long as it is productive - criticism has its place so long as these designs maintain their original shape. If only: we create rhythm to protect ourselves to span across the desolate nights protected by nothing but the promise of a new hopeful sound.

action by degrees
An attempt to maintain balance, to understand what is correct in this situation, to move away from the idea that every moment is of consequence, an attempt to relax. when will this occur? I didn't sleep well last night. Perhaps I need more discipline, more structure to achieve my aims. I cannot continue to be plagued with things that are beyond my control. Perhaps its the effect of the Trap, the cumulative idea that's started to germinate, the one item that i thought i'd put behind me, why is it here again? I have to stay focussed. I have to maintain the sense that I am doing the right thing, the sense that things are alright as they are, that I have done enough with what time I have. I always want to know more but one cannot constantly be barraged with questions, things will come about in time. Wonderful things. I have to allow this to become as it is. There is no point in pushing someone in a certain direction, if that person wants to be there then it will happen. I see no need in worrying about such things. And yet I have, or at least perhaps this is all a consequence of my diet, perhaps I just need time to get myself into a proper rhythm and everything will follow from that. It is better to have specific goals to work towards to at least have the illusion of achievement. That said, I think I've done pretty well so far. I met a beautiful woman and will do everything in my power not to lose her. I've never felt more strongly about someone in such a long long time. Its been over three months now and things are going very well. I need to focus on this more, to direct my energies to help us achieve our goals. I feel that there is so much promise here. I wish I could rest today or use this time to get my life in order, some sort of mental health option, to selfishly pursue all the things I did not get to yesterday. It will have to wait until after work today. Another week begins, I have to be alert and pay attention to my work now.

deus ex machina
Perhaps that's what is it needed in this instance. A final resolute option. It all sounds so silly to me- the escape, the moment, the time elapsed - it all pales in comparison to the mark of history to the examples presented before me to this foregrounded sentiment to the rashness of the spectacle and my uninhibited expectations. This will never be taken for granted. The caving in to another's selfish desires - something else that yearns for mistolerance, that exists only to keep this presence away from me. Oh that I were not bound by such material concerns and plagued with mundane commitments. Is it really so much easier to let that drift out of concern for others - to walk away and isolate oneself? To act like the myopic and the driven? Where is the perspective in this scenario? Where is the push for the alright? Where is the motion to give this birth meaning? I am left with a collection of gestures and caresses. What has the light given me in this respect? A moment of silence, a moment with which to process this yet again, unaccounted for traumas. I wish this would all be deciphered. I hope to stand on firm, solid ground again. The strains of weakness and fever echo in my head - the eye and the hand. The call to break this cycle of repetition.

their terrain
Every time I look into her eyes I feel such joy and wonder at the same moment. Is this what people do? Sit around not speaking just staring into each others eyes for minute after minute looking at each other finding out where it all connects. Waiting for the the moment the rough and the smooth finally meet.
Tonight i walk out into the rain again. Define sound as it rests upon my ears.
Tonight i walk out into the rain again. Define sound as it rests upon my ears.

Musician and visual artist CARSTEN NICOLAI (aka ALVA NOTO) works
in the transitional area between art and science. In his intensely
dynamic work, Nicolai plays with the rules of physicality. Clicks
and glitches are not used as ornamental additions, but make up the
essential elements of the work, which is often structured around
the rhythmic grooves of hip-hop and R&B. Nicolai has performed in
many of the world's most prestigious spaces including The Guggenheim,
MOMA SF, MOMA Oxford, NTT Tokyo, Tate Modern, and Venice Biennial.
http://www.carstennicolai.com/
OLAF BENDER (aka BYETONE) is a founding member of the Raster-Noton
label, as well as its lead designer. Bender creates his music digitally,
assembling sine tones into complex sound fabrics of deep sub-bass
and rhythmic clicks and crackles. He creates abstract animations
to support his abstract music, transforming the rhythm of the music
into a graphic equivalent, which he controls in real time.
