TEXT & PLAYLIST

"The selection is loosely based on an idea for a novella which never really got off the ground from a few years back. The main of the idea focuses on a solitary, nomadic and non-interventionist consciousness roaming various territories and sensibilities (affects, lives, dreams, livelihoods, etc.) that generally revolve around century old "subject matter" like Religion, Man, Culture, Being, Time, and Nature. Briefly, the narrative commences like any other and typical existential search for an/the all-consuming Meaning but slowly turns into a discovery of and connection with Auditory Life in all its complexity and nuances."
