Voice Over

I was sitting on a small open boat
and it was dark outside.
The only light was the moon.
I was rowing somewhere.
The boat slid along the bank and glided
out of the reeds.
Sandbanks caressed the hull.
They were like whales under the surface
of the swamp.
I was rowing somewhere.
They disappeared.
As I was going further the fog came in.
The fog was everywhere.
It was so thick I could
no longer see the water.
I felt surrounded with
no sense of where I was.
I was standing in the middle of a finite
space without boundaries.
It was like floating.
White all around.
I could no longer hear the echo of the oars
on the wood near the shore.
I felt there was no shore to be reached.
I slid the extremity of my fingers under
the surface.
And was surprised to feel cold air
on the other side,
I realized I was in water.
and numb,
The boat was floating upside down under
the water.
It was lying just below the surface of the air.
There was no up or down anymore.
I felt I was floating in the air.
I was in water.
I was not afraid.
You hear my voice come through the radio.
You feel my voice coming through the radio.
The sound of my voice envelops you.
My voice fills the space through the radio.
Here is an experiment I would like to share
with you. We’re going to restart the hands
of a watch or a clock that were sitting
around for a while. Something you wouldn’t
normally believe is possible. In some way,
this event won’t happen as we will simply
be conjuring something that has already
been and perhaps we can say is simply
taking a break.
The water seemed to absorb all.
Everything was the same.
There was no water and there was no air.
I was out of breath.
I tried to sink to find the surface.
I had the sensation that I was going
to surface again into the air.
I wondered how far under towards
the surface would I sink?
I was falling upwards.
Down was up and up was down.
I tried to hold my breath but there was
no need.
I had a feeling that the water was coming
towards me.
And inside and out.
I dissolved into the air
I was like liquid.
I was the air.
I was still and tried to hold my breath but
there was no need.
I gonna need you to find a watch or a clock,
that perhaps been left in a drawer or a box.
Maybe it is somewhere in your basement,
or attic. I’m going to ask you to help me
amplify this transmission by placing
something metallic on the radio. It’s
probably been broken for some time.
Something inside its mechanism is jammed.
The hands are stuck. His continuity has
been frozen at some point.
When you find this broken watch, wind
it and make sure it is not working.
Then, you will place it in front of the radio.
This radio broadcast will help you
understand that at a certain point you are
able to surpass something similar to a type
of sound barrier. A place where our
individual presences are able to conjoin.
Able to reverse that which fate has seemingly
brought down upon us. Now, for this
experiment you should be as convinced that
waves from the mind can penetrate matter,
as if it were permeable. Your mind, at this
point, is acting as a transducer receiving
those particular particles which influence
the behavior of matter and shape your
surroundings. We are establishing ourself
as instruments. Instruments that are able
to convert electrical variations of sound into
a physical quantity of magnetic waves.
We will direct them in our task. The center
of gravity of will shift slightly.
These gears will turn. I was still and tried
to hold my breath but there was no need.
Then I was floating down.
I had to open my mouth but instead
of water, air came in.
I was breathing deeply.
The air was filling my lungs.
I could feel the pressure of the air going
in and out.
But I was not breathing myself.
the air was making me breathe outside
of my will.
The air made my vocal chords start
to resonate.
I could hear sound coming from the throat.
I tried to hold my breath.
I felt as though I should be drowning
but I wasn’t.
I could hear audible pulses.
My tongue was shifting to the top
of my mouth.
My vocal tract was filled with sounds
and air.
My cheeks and lips were also moving.
Whispers and whistling were leaving
my mouth.
The air was going in and out.
Together we are making this watch join
again, the current of time. Like a boat
caught on a sandbar in the middle of a
river, the river will rise, and when it does,
continues to carry this boat in his current,
you will raise the river, we will raise the
river together and this boat, the arms of this
watch will continue.
Listen to these steps and visualize them
with me and after we’ve done so we’ll count
quickly and say the word “work.”
One, the river rising.
Two, the boat is unsettled.
Three, it’s one with the current.
Ready?
One, two, three, “work.”
One more time, one, two, three, “work.”
The air was going in and out.
I felt as though I should be drowning
but I wasn’t.
I was numb.
I was only able to hear.
The tone of voice.
Voices came.
Words from others.
I was speaking others words.
Others voices.
I couldn’t believe,
do anything.
I could only hear,
I was unable to direct my speech.
I was speaking and breathing without will.
The voices became distinct,
I could hear them clearly.
They spoke of a dream.
