send silence (2020, binaural mix) by Joshua Matthew Biggs send silence (2020) is the result of a collaborative effort featuring almost a hundred recordings of silence(s) sent by friends from around the world. The piece might also be approached as an elaborate (and undisciplined) performance of John Cage's silent piece. Please listen with headphones only - the binaural algorithm used to render the ambisonic spatialization will sound strange(r) through regular speakers.

Terence McKenna - Dream Awake by raycote In this expansive talk, given at Fort Mason, San Francisco, on December 13, 1998, McKenna spins the spiritual analogies of dreaming and awakening into a wide-ranging discussion of consciousness, virtual reality, the primacy of language, the plasticity of time, culture as an operating system and the responsibility of working for cultural change.

It’s the year 5016. Archaeologists have a skewed and inaccurate view of what life was like in the 21st century.

Single people want relationships, settled people wonder if they’re missing out on something, traveling types miss stability, stable ones are restless, old friends want new friends, new friends miss old friends, and basically almost everyone my age has some dangling worry trailing around after them everywhere that they’re somehow not doing everything, that what they’re doing is not altogether the right thing, that they are missing out. … Do not be ashamed. The doubt is natural, and everyone you know – yes, even that person – carries it sometimes too. Allow yourself to be peaceful. Allow yourself satisfaction in what you have. If you really don’t like it, allow yourself permission to make changes. —Lillian Schneider artwork by mintu
