There is a profound feeling in the performance and it is cool 🌞🎻🎶 And a nice story 🌹⌛

it moves me. Excellent emotion that is transmitted here

hard to go wrong with this classic melody, and the poetry on top in such an authentic way

What great line. Just beautiful. I cannot get enough of your work.

Poem 'Body Memory Hypothesis', field recording and cover pic taken in Venezia at Punta della Dogana by Ilaria Boffa

Body Memory Hypothesis

'La nostalgia never rests, never 
complains for it never ceases. 
 
When we rarefy we loosen grip
we allow others’ passage. 
They release new kinaesthetic 
recordings and by merging we
discontinue our tissue 
recollections and restore 
experience. Permeable or
semipermeable, up to us.
It’s a remembrance crossover
and recombination.

Feel me spread and merge.
Rarefy.'

Body Memory Hypothesis (canticle)

Poetry, Field recording and the Human Human

'I use this space to offer an experience of Sonopoetry, the voice of verses combined with field/sound recording and music collaborations.
Writing and composition marked the passage from pre-history to history for human beings. I firmly believe that writing&listening (active care/empathy and full attention to each and every sound from each and every living and non living being) could inform, guide and represent the Posthuman era that I'll call Human Human era -from sapiens sapiens to human human.
The contemporary alliance between the disciplines of Art, Science and Philosophy elicits the conceptualisation of the Posthuman that to me also implies the transition from the Anthropocene to the Age of Art as a driver of thought and vision. I advocate the responsibility to assign a 'more than human' meaning to the Posthuman concept, that's why Human Human, in order to emphasise the human core, the genetic connection to bio and non-bio diversity as per the Biophilia Hypothesis.
Are we listening?'
