“It starts off like climbing a tree or solving a puzzle - poetry, if nothing else, is just fun to write. But deeper into each and every piece, you no longer hesitate to call it work. It's passion. A poet's sense of lyrical accomplishment is then his food and water, his means of survival.” IfsWritingMeanPassionFunWaterPiecesTreePoetSurvivalDeeperAccomplishmentWorking ItClimbingPuzzlesLyrical Book:Killosophy Source: Killosophy
“My monumental netted sculptural environments move through time, animated by an ever-changing 'wind choreography,' making invisible air currents suddenly visible to the human eye.

“I started to see human beings as little lonesome, water based, pink meat, life forms pushing air through themselves and making noises that the other little pieces of meat seemed to understand. I was thinking to myself, 'There's five billion people here but we've never been more isolated.' The only result of the aggressive individualism we pursue is that you lose sight of your compassion and we go to bed at night thinking, 'Is this all there is?' because we don't feel fulfilled.” PeopleThinkingFeelsHumansLittlesFormNightWaterLosesHuman BeingsResultsCompassionFivePiecesAirBedSightBillionsNoisePursueMeatPushingAggressiveIndividualismIsolatedFulfilledLonesomeNight Thinking Author:Devin Townsend

“He who receives Communion is made holy and Divinized in soul and body in the same way that water, set over a fire, becomes boiling... Communion works like yeast that has been mixed into dough so that it leavens the whole mass; ...Just as by melting two candles together you get one piece of wax, so, I think, one who receives the Flesh and Blood of Jesus is fused together with Him by this Communion, and the soul finds that he is in Christ and Christ is in him” ThinkingWayHas BeensMadeTwoSoulWholeBodyTogetherJesusChristWaterFirePiecesBloodHolyMassFleshCandleCommunionSacramentsMeltingOne PieceFlesh And BloodBoilingDoughSoul And BodyYeastBlood Of Jesus Author:Cyril of Alexandria
“Aomori Water is a sound collage piece made in 1998, in Aomori Japan. I was in a residency with other artists. A Japanese sculptor was making a round house and wanted a sound piece to play in it. I recorded some very gentle waves lapping the beach, for the first part. And a very small mountain stream, flowing, for the second part. I layered 8 tracks. This was the first work that I did in ProTools.” FirstsMadePlayWantedArtistHouseSoundWaterPiecesMountainRoundsWaveTrackBeachGentleStreamsJapanSculptorsCollagesResidencyMountain Streams Author:Phill Niblock

“Do not think I do not realise what I am doing. I am making a composition using the following elements: the winter beach; the winter moon; the ocean; the women; the pine trees; the riders; the driftwood; the shells; the shapes of darkness and the shapes of water; and the refuse. These are all inimical to my loneliness because of their indifference to it. Out of these pieces of inimical indifference, I intend to represent the desolate smile of winter which, as you must have gathered, is the smile I wear.” ThinkingWaterDarknessPiecesTreeLonelinessShapesMoonElementsOceanWinterFollowingRefuseBeachIndifferenceRealisingShellsCompositionRidersDesolatePine TreesDriftwoodWinter Moon Author:Angela Carter
