This performance explores the process of assimilation and the weight of obsessive thoughts, how they consume the present and relegate life to the background. The piece combines two loudspeakers emitting fragmented thoughts with a simultaneously advancing human spiral of blood, symbolizing the tension between internal immersion and the transience of the present.
Through the performance, the cost of being trapped in one’s own mind is confronted, transforming sound and movement into a visceral reflection on the fragility of attention and presence.
Thoughts echo in the head, taking up time and space reaching the point of losing time of life by and for them. These resonances sometimes cause metaphorical bleeding on repetition.
Developed in 2022 in the laboratory of Expanded Ethnography with Carlos Casas in the framework of ECAM.
