about

Instead, the stories could become worlds inhabited by things that keep slipping beyond our grasp. Things which lurk at the back of our mind, on the tip of our tongue, just out of reach. Stories with protagonists that can only be known as gaps in being. The spaces they leave. Not here and not quite there yet. Dwelling on the peripheries of the sensible, speaking in glimmers, shimmers, suggestions.

These stories may not even have words. They might be felt rather than told. In sound, scent, touch and light. The stories might be experienced at the limits of the visible spectrum, pulsing at ultraviolet or infrared frequencies. They might inhabit the radio spectrum or create divergencies across the spectrum of acceptable behaviours. Spectral stories, stories of cosmic spectra and planetary spectres. The folk tales of unquiet matter.

"I have sought to show how the terms 'mind' and 'matter' are abstractions which in their concreteness are identical" —Peter Sjöstedt-H


Recorded and composed in the Sonoran Desert, Seili, the Kii peninsula, Istria, Helsinki, Brussels and Elsewhere during 02018 and 02019 by Nik Gaffney and Maja Kuzmanovic.

With thanks to Taru Elfving, the Bioart Society, spectral interferrences from Seili, the kami of 熊野古道 and the seething scope of sentience.

Supported by CAA Contemporary Art Archipelago, Saaristomeren tutkimuslaitos and the Panpsychic Development Fund.
