Drawn Song Bird song halved and extended. So near the building, this one beautiful bird. http://www.asondheim.org/drawnbird.mp3 Halved and lowered, the echo of the bird against brick and stone. I haven't heard these sounds. Organizing avatar video for a conference next week; the work is translucent, neither deep-time nor anything more than surface. I can't get anywhere beyond the surface. If I do sex or violence I get a rise, at least something emotional. Some talk about death, war, wounded avatars beneath the surface of the prim-rosed sea. If I don't, well then, there's always the dawn-drawn bird-cry, neither falcon nor osprey, eagle or mountebank crow. Settle for that rather than some avatar deep-protocol other. At least you won't fall in love. All over again.
