Text by Andrew Choate 

when a bubble
water plopping into cave holes with the tide,
filling it up unevenly with liquid and air
the gift of gloop gloop gloop
then a bubble
when a bubble
opens,
when a bubble opens it disappears
but slow it down, zoom, and see the seam,
the place of rupture, agitation, action, event
it whistles across the surface of itself, an unzipping of wholeness
pulling the spine out of an animal.
Put it back inside one that never had it.
Bubble that out. hoop swoop scoop loop

speed and plankton
moving fast while standing still
others can’t catch up you’re so still and fast
growing

get everything that vibrates in one stadium one city one country
walking on water, liminality shimmer

when the music is this intimate, it is everywhere
physical and emotional relationships with every side of the instrument
vulnerable to the point of virtuosity
devotion fulfilled
clarity determined
transcendence so deep as to circle back
the uncovered embrace that was reality all along
