Feel the shifting edges.
Go for a walk.
Barefoot.
Walk so gently that your feet hear the histories of the ground beneath them. Inhale.
Consider where the environment ends and you begin.
Walk that line. Where is it?
On your skin? In your mouth? In your lungs? In your blood?
Exhale.
Is the CO2 ‘you’?
Breathe a trace of condensation on a glass surface. Touch it.
Is it part of you? Or of the world?
Listen to the silences, absences, presences.
Read the deep faultlines of geology and control.
Ingest the atmospheric consequences of another era.
Feel other entities, other places and other times.
Life forms defy boundaries at every level. Feel the shifting edges of yourself.
