The Garden, facsimile of a walk

When someone speaks a world opens up.

Raduan Nassar once said “every word, yes, every word is a seed”.
Seeds may be able to germinate in an electromagnetic environment like energetically rubbed amber, turned into a magnet, magnesite electricity. From the ethereal fluid – previously imagined powerfulether – to the undulating radiations classified by Physics as “electromagnetic radiations”, we walk in this floating energy in search of voices full of magnetism. Baron Karl von Reichenbach called this strange energy out of all living things Odyle. Radiant Odyle.

In the 20th century, biologist Raoul France already knew that plants move their bodies as freely and easily as any of us. Also because there is no garden without wind that transforms everything, all the time.
A walk in this radio garden germinating messages amplified in the colors of pleasures: who has never been in this garden? who doesn’t remember having been there?

A well where we dip our ears in this water as essential as that other, imaginary. We are composed of these elements.

In the abyss – abysm, another translation for well – the leaps of memory: in the comings and goings of remembrance and oblivion, we build our stories stored in books such as these ceramic pages, agglomerating the minerals and colors composed in the earth of a garden.
The dream of sleep. Only ears.
Each dream the facsimile of memories… never definitive.
Sleep is an echo, the biologist has said.
This one, a radio echo.
