liminal poetry_03

For the last three years I have scanned the streets and spaces of New York City for text that might help me better understand the social, cultural, and political realities and conditions of the vast and enigmatic metropolis. I have amassed a huge corpus of text. liminal poetry_03 is composed of some of the text I have found. The metadata is a part of the poetry; it can be thought of as flaneurial field notes, minimal yet elucidating content.

“Do you see an object? Any edges? Anything hard? Anything slanted?”
“If light striking the retina is the simplest condition, then the simplest fullest condition would be white light– the simultaneous presentation of the full spectrum of color– striking the entire retina uniformly.”
“The ‘fog’ of pure vision was ‘vaguely surface-like’.”
“One acute observer saw ‘levels of nothingness’.”
“‘natural’ visual perception is never pure.”

Chaos in the “Total Field” of Vision,

Society of Smallness: A Minifesto

Minifesto 2020
Laser print of digitally scanned original handwritten in ink on paper
21.59 x 27.94 cm (8.5 x 11 in.)

In pre-pandemic times, we would have liked the minifesto to be tactile, if somewhat imperceptible. We may have rolled it up into a tiny scroll. Right before parting, after conversing with a friend, we may have leaned in closely to place it directly into the palm of their hand, closing their fingers gently around it with our own and letting our hands linger in this silent clasp for a millisecond.
Alas, the minifesto exists as a downloadable PDF that can make its way into hands, then into the nooks and crannies of building masonry and forlorn sidewalks.

We welcome correspondence—images, insta, email, tweets—of how the minifesto manifests in other parts of the planet.

6 audio pieces

In this project I recorded the sounds of 3 rooms that I lived in over the course of a year, while I was “by myself” (there are dogs in some of the recordings lol). I manipulated and cut 15 recordings, and layered them into 6 pieces. I created new subtle environments using the sounds that happen around me when it’s quiet. I did this with intentions to work a material that is usually EQ’d out of recordings, something always present and unwanted (usually).

They are field recordings of my rooms. The sounds that happen when i am dissociating, self isolating, in a depressive state etc.
