👇👆 Here’s a small clip from the uncut version, produced by @landmarksut and @richardcarpen , who filmed this beautiful piece while I speak to Andreé Bober about An Interval of Time (2020), a time-based digital work commissioned by Landmarks for The University of Texas at Austin. Begun in 2010, it traces the evolution of my practice and personal development through the past decade, reflecting my interests in the metaphysical, the spiritual, and the scientific, and how they intertwine. The year 2020 invited us to deepen observation. Through An Interval of Time I brought together my many interests to create a lyrical work where layers reveal the infinite, an ode to planet Earth. My practice now moves as one with my inner development. I no longer seek truth; I create from synthesis. I embody my vision through environments for public spaces, through readings that reveal purpose, and through talks, writings, podcasts and workshops that extend this dialogue.
So it’s about getting back to instinct, getting back to quietude, so I can actually perceive things with my senses, not my mind. The mind is very important to use only what is needed, using logic, but everything else that is going to allow me to sustain my life has to come from internal relationships. We are also beginning the annual journey of the Sun through the splenic gates in Human Design, a six-week passage that activates our instinct, our fears, and our intuition. This is the cycle where the body teaches us how to trust our senses to understand where we are. It begins with Gate 18, the drive to correct and improve, the place where sight knows when something is off. It then moves to Gate 48, the well of solutions, where the fear of inadequacy lives, again through sight discerning whether there is enough depth. Gate 57 carries the fear of the future, yet here intuition sharpens as clear hearing. Gate 32 holds the fear of failure, preserving what endures through instinct. Gate 50 brings the fear of responsibility, shaping the values that sustain community. Gate 28 touches the fear of life being meaningless, awakening the struggle for purpose. Finally, Gate 44 holds the fear of the past repeating, an instinct that calls on memory and recognition. This is the terrain the Sun is moving through right now, week by week drawing us deeper into the spleen, where instinct becomes intuition and fear reveals itself as awareness. View Article →
