Label / Year: Illuminated
Paths / 2017
It’s nearing midnight. You find an abandoned cassette player in the
street, tape still running. There’s drama in the humid air. Maybe a hint of
adventure. Yet the batteries are running down, and from a passing vehicle you hear the
static of a forgotten radio. The red pulse of a radio tower shimmers in the distance. Is
this a novel of your own invention? It’s Y2K & all those technical
difficulties are melting like a chalkdust Dali scrawled upon the sidewalk. No
worries – there’s a lunar spa and a beautiful garden just on the other side of
that clockface.
Unplug your TV. Listen to this instead.
