flowing

I received an email from composer Hildegard Westerkamp, about ego, and set Hildi’s words to sound...

Note: For a narrated version of this posting (with a soundscape composition composed at La Montagnarde artists residency) click here.

• The time seems right for you to let everyone’s words flow through you - as if through a medium or force - back to all of us in ever new shapes. 

• This creates shifts in everyone’s perception, ideas, attitudes, feelings and approaches towards the world the way it is now.  

• I have always felt that this was precisely what I was doing with environmental sounds. 

• I recorded them (like voices that speak). 

• I listened to them and then let them flow through me (speak through my compositions, like your and everyone’s words speak through your conscient podcast) back to everyone. 

• Our own inner shift simply enables for more shifting to happen. It’s not us (our ego) that is effective here in allowing the flow of transformation to happen. 

• The ego is more like a blood clot blocking true shifting in the larger scheme/flow of things - i.e. it wants to be exclusive, can’t include the perceptions and shifting of others. 

• It’s a deeper engagement - love, passion or whatever one might call it - that not only allows, but desires for energies to flow through - reach - the nooks and crannies of human perception. Like a river. 

• We are like the water particles that collaborate for the river to find its way through the landscapes as they present themselves. 

• Opening ever-new vistas.
