Point d’ouïe, citation
« … Allez dans les forêts, allez dans les vallées ;Faites-vous un concert de notes isolées !Cherchez dans la nature, étalée à vos yeux,Soit que l’hiver l’attriste ou que l’été l’égaie,Le mot mystérieux que chaque voix bégaie.Écoutez ce que dit la foudre dans les cieux !Enivrez-vous de tout ! enivrez-vous, poètes,Des gazons, des ruisseaux, des […]

Une cérémonie, un rite, sont des façons de rassembler des écoutants pour vivre une action singulière, pouvant être […]
The Years
I know it is weird to divide my almost three decades in the city into before, during, not-quite-over, and after the pandemic, but I find myself increasingly slicing and muddling my life into these time frames. Conversations, memories, friendships, the logbook of losses, mood swings, even dreams, appear to be structured by these frames. This piece reflects on my years in the city and grapples with the relationship between longing and loss, forgetting and remembering, even as I know well that this relationship is unstable and contradictory and can never be resolved. This relationship does not dwell in the realm of my imagination.
