Death Dirge Viola how would I listen? viola1 replaces the other viola1. viola2 is the _matrix_ from which viola0 is the result. I would listen first to viola0 which is the result of a dream, produced from another matrix: Azure and I waiting outside a (university) hall in Canada or Europe; our unknown friend is speaking. The cellphone rings; I hit the answer button more assuredly than usual. My mother is on the line, Hello Alan, this is your mother, I just called to tell you I'm doing well. How are you. I'm doing well but I thought you were dead. I am but I wanted to say you're doing a good job and Azure is doing a good job as well. I began to pass the phone to Azure, somewhere saying, this is Mother, her voice was fading out, the line was open but emptied, there was nothing. I think she was calling perhaps from New York, I'm not sure, I woke up in tears, I know this is the oldest scenario in the world, predating our world, awakening to my deepest fears. My mother died in 2000, my uncle and cousin just died, my sister is going to my uncle's funeral, earlier I composed these pieces which are mournful, calling out. viola1 was the first recorded, repeating and repeating as if something would emerge, it emerged later in viola0, viola 2 a diversion. Somewhere I was hearing You Are My Sunshine, Sheila Jordan and George Russell, but that's not here, that's gone, that's elsewhere, elsewhere. http://s94519757.onlinehome.us/sheila2/videos80th.html for Sheila Jordan's 80th birthday celebration. http://espdisk.com/alansondheim/viola0.mp3 http://espdisk.com/alansondheim/viola1.mp3 http://espdisk.com/alansondheim/viola2.mp3 _______________________________________________ NetBehaviour mailing list [email protected] http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
