Toward Another, 2019
Audio Piece with Photograph
2 minutes 52 seconds

Toward Another invites listeners to an unlikely realm. Using a feminist methodology of vulnerable affective writing as a framework for dreamscape fiction, it shares an intimate soundscape known only to the narrator. Like a dream, the voice tells a story which dances along the line of what is fiction and what is real. Toward Another is an ephemeral soundwalk and a ghost story about longing and reacquaintance. It navigates the narrator’s inner sonic world, recounting the first time they were visited by their “dead” voice in a dream.

The 5x5” accompanying photograph is a blurred horizon made with a defective camera jammed for multiple exposures to create an ethereal landscape, heavily evoking the feeling of being stuck in one’s own head, unable to see beyond itself, yet still there’s a horizon.
