scrape a stick across the ground
(feeling for the variety that suggests progress, movement, timelines, passing)
realign
pause
slide
An expected jaggedness across skin- the catch, the release, the drag, the slide. the making of a trail. the constant urge for orientation, for assembling the world around you as the center(ed). All available resources.
There is a give and take in scraping- the experience/sensation of something pushing against something else, seeking entry points, weak points, welcome signs, feedback.
Pressure points, what resists friction.
how hard it feels to know where you're going without a moment before (who are you here/now without knowing where you've physically been right before)
The way skin slides across surfaces . The expectancy of this as THE WAY we slide. Skin as a bubble. Skin as expansion. Skin as possibility.
becoming only what pushes back against you, what resists your edges. objects that collapse. places/combinations that counter expectations. sensating your opposites.
What yields. What fights back.
A movement, then stillness.
A movement then rupture,
A movement, then realignment.
A movement, then stillness.
"an animal never rests, not really"
exposing the making of meaning, of geography, of the processes of passing through/around/over/behind
Breath blowing backwards down the throat, the unexpected effort of movement without ingrained certainty of outcome
What yields. / What resists. / What pushes back.
OTHER INTERESTING THINGS
Dolphins don't have vocal cords. They make sounds by vibrating their nasal cavities. Air is pushed around by what is called the "sonic
lips", structures that project air into the nasal passages. sound is vibration. At some point, movement and sound become similar. Woah Is this suddenly Matt's project? The ways we move through space. The vibrations we cause, the vibrations we get. The ways this influences speed, comfort, safety, meaning.
