all things may bathe
a river rushing outward, in

Durational Aesthetics- travelling in time


RED NOTEBOOK, p4

"One might be tempted to think upon the idea of Time Travel as a process of bodily movement from one point on a line segment to another at a rate or in a 'direction' other than that afforded one by nature.  But if, as some suggest, time is not 'shaped' like a line but like a tree, or a spiral, or a stream, or a weaving, or a crumpled up piece of paper, or boiling water, and if we would be better served in speaking of Durations rather than Directions 

(ie- "point me in the right duration")

then perhaps it might behoove us to dream up some other possible schemata/ definitions of what it is to be

TRAVELLING IN TIME"
