Notes
From the J-card:Writing Aloud: this recording was produced by placing a contact microphone on the tip of a pencil and writing out the last page of "The Pleasure of the Text" [by Roland Barthes]. While writing, I also read aloud the text, therefore immersing myself into its presence--a corporeal body against the body of the text.
*
Elemental Body: reading a list of sounds heard over a period of days, evoking their presence through words, I wanted to present a theater of language. In this theater the body loses itself in the physical presence of the material around it--it becomes the very carnal embodiment of the text from which meaning flows.
Field of Disturbance: I made a recording of myself typing the last pages of "The Pleasure of the Text". I then took this recording and amplified it through a small hand held tape machine while walking down a street in Hollywood, thereby exposing the private moment--the intimacy which I share with the text, the secret rendezvous which occurs between every reader and every text--into the open. The present recording is of this walk.
