Been away. Lost in the everydays.
When Im on the last page of a book I love, I want someone to watch my face as the last sentences leave my flow. I imagine they would be able to see my soul.
If Im listening to good music, on headphones or in concert, sometimes I get so moved, all the emotions in the world move through me like warm and cold water.
Then I want someone to watch me, see me, and somehow confirm my wholeness and my being there and partaking in what I am inside there and then.
Everybody wants to be seen. Why is that? And why is it so rare?

What you said about your process and how you see images when you listen to music reminds me of Norman McLaren. A pioneer in the field of animation and video interpretations of music. I feel like I must have mentioned him to you before. Are you familiar with him at all?
I used to hear music for the first time on the radio coming
from the radio stations of Europe. As I shut my eyes I saw the
play and dance of forms. Music can do a lot of things. It has
a tempo, which can be slow or fast. It can accelerate or
decelerate. I could visualize the equivalent of these things in
the picture area. Things could skip or leap about joyfully or
they could drag themselves tragically around."
Hope the weather is as beautiful there as it is here!
