Punctuate place

Repetition Breathing Punctuation

Exclamation marks are overrated

Felt vibration
Felt
Pen
Feel the felt of your dreams

Impossible to think a single thought
A grid needs to be drawn however irregular it might be

Dream:
A number of combinations far greater than language can record

Sound translates the instability of the surface reactions when it spreads to the connecting points of performer-hands-space

Further unfolding listening
There is no sound in dreams, isn’t it? Time is futile
