i oh
i have a magnetic shadow bleeding on tape as an echo
i oh developed as a music-centered response to my personal work with “liminal states of consciousness” that arose in a non-art context generally characterized as healing. based on casual recordings of my own voice that i had made during actual sessions, my soundtrack focuses on sequences of highly stimulated vocalization (”excited,” “ecstatic,” etc.), particularly those that seem to embody a unique and intense experience of knowing, something like a direct encounter with vitality. the experienced effects: sound, vision and emotion in the rawest possible state. truth shot through me like a whistle.
