body verse
The Body is one’s BEING. The Body is the poem. The Body is the epic of life, and if I can actually transform the poem into Body and the Body into poem, I will have found my "something that’s big enough to fit it all in."

Bodiverse
The body is a reference book for living into the past present, and future. It is the map of life. It is both an example and a symbol of nature and nurture. It straddles the sciences. It negotiates space and time. It communicates and interprets. It is historically accurate. It is an essay on cultural ethics, gender politics, ecology, family, architecture, gerontology, comparative religion, education, sexual revolution, work ethcis, and class. It is mystical and explainable. It is form and content. It is predictable and irregular. It is layered. It is taken for granted. It is worshipped and adored. It presents us to the world.

This is beautiful. Did you introduce the sirens intentionally, or was that serendipitous?
Maybe this has to do with the fact that I just watched the entirety of "Twin Peaks" season two in four days, but there is something quite Lynchian about this video.
Thank you for your feedback housefrau. While filming, I hadn't noticed the ambient sounds. It wasn't until a few days later, when I watched the footage that I heard the sirens. I was disturbed that I had been so oblivious to the external world, especially the tragic sounds of illness. The text in the video was my improvisational response to watching that footage for the first time.
