Walk 146

Swayambhu to Tergar Osel LingPilgrimage and sacred sites all over the place. There is so much I don't know about these ancient streets I'm walking on. Past that one air conditioned cafe. Around Swayambhunath, the Monkey Temple. Through Buddha park, where golden statues of Padmasambhava, Shakyamuni and Chenrezig gaze across the crowded and noisy Ring Road. Across the Ring Road, somehow.  Up the windy road, up the pathway, up the stairs. Cheerful monks coming down say I'm almost t [...]

Marcher autour du silence !

Avec L’Atelier Tiers-Lieu Amplepuis, nous avons expérimenté une déambulation sensorielle écoutante, polymorphe, comme je les adore. Cinq kilomètres dans une campagne très belle, pentue, avec de magnifiques passages en forêt, de superbes vues panoramiques, d’incroyables paysages très vallonnés . Une thématique autour du silence, ou plutôt des silences. Une mise en condition, se sentir ancré […]

Champ lexical en mode liquide

Lorsque j’ai démarré le projet « Bassins versants l’oreille fluante », le champs lexical tout droit venu des terres aquatiques m’a sauté à l’oreille. Je me suis senti submergé de joie, et aussi de travail.J’ai pensé et agi en amont et en aval, tout en dérivant parfois.J’ai été abordé, parfois accosté.J’ai tenté de ne pas trop avoir […]

Point d’ouïe, indisciplinarités et entrelacs

L’espace sonore, celui que l’on appelle parfois environnement ou paysage, même si ces dénominations relèvent de réalités sensiblement différentes, est un tissu complexe d’imbrications et d’entrelacements spatio-temporelles. Nœuds, tissages, brisures, complexité, croisements, tout un champ sémantique appelant des pensées, actions et lectures où se tissent des ouvertures et les incertitudes inhérentes. L’univers audible est peuplé […]

lonning, lonnin

Cumbrian dialect term for ‘lane’ – but a quite specific lane. Lonnings are usually about half a mile long, low level and often with a farm at the end. Many have specific names known only to the local villagers. Hence, Bluebottle Lonning, Lovers Lonning, Fat Lonning, Thin Lonning, Squeezy Gut Lonning or Dynamite Lonning. In the north-east the spelling is lonnin and seems to refer more to an alley than a country lane. The Scottish equivalent is ‘loan’.
