RIDDIMS

Where does spelling get us?

 

Echo
Gombay

 

Vibrating tones are “of” the body rather than “of”’ sound.
What are memories to this sensory experience?

 

who do you come from?
where do you come from?

 

How far are “you” from “from”?

RHYTHM IS A SOURCE OF LOVE
LOVE IS A SOURCE OF POWER
POWER IS A SOURCE OF FREEDOM

 

Rhythm (vibratorial feeling), love (emotive feeling),
power (autonomy interior/exterior), freedom (non language).
