method: the soundstream, mostly  in sth akin to c minor, was created on a minilogue xd, voice went through a VT 4 and a flamma pedal
narration: "shadow work" is quite a cumbersome and unsuitable expression for something extremely real (note: this is a poem, don't take things literally, e.g. the "pictish murals" - the rampant  illiteracy regarding poetic means is a sign of the times that is increasingly bothering me .... )

poem / copyright jo richter:

what is it like to smile
with no time to spare?
what is it like to frame
moments in memory?
what is it like to cut
yourself off and not care?
what is it like to be
you, to be me?

... and the landscape we live in
feels familiarly alien
purple thoughts rolling and soaring
tethered to if, tethered to when ....

hands on the hilt, shouting
down strangers
on pictish murals, the gods
never bother
caressing masks that smell
of their wearers
othering others for others
to other

... and the seeds sown do not know
of their nature
until they ripen and show
each unique feature ....
