Sleep Dose #132

Mercoledì 2 luglio, Sleep Dose #132 (Nel Teatro della Mente – Disintegrating Jazz).
Un vecchio giradischi si mette in moto a riprodurre vecchi brani jazz, presi da 78 giri e cilindri fonografici. Sono relitti sopravvissuti al futuro. Gracchiano per la polvere accumulata dal tempo, un pulviscolo strepitante, simile ad incrostazioni sinaptiche. Malfunzionamenti e gap del cervello riflessi sulla mente, che comincia a funzionare male, si distorce; comprime e dilata il tempo a piacimento, lo cancella, disintegrandolo.
Ma senza più un racconto, chi siamo? Che cosa siamo diventati se non ci rimane più un passato, quando tutto svanisce e la memoria si sgretola, pezzo dopo pezzo?
L’indagine di The Caretaker è rivolta concettualmente alla lenta deriva di una mente che consuma, fase dopo fase, i suoi ricordi, e tutto cancella.

Wednesday, July 2, Sleep Dose #132 (In the Theater of the Mind – Disintegrating Jazz).
An old record player starts playing old jazz tunes, taken from 78s and phonograph cylinders. They are relics that have survived the future. They croak from the accumulated dust of time, a streaking dust, akin to synaptic encrustations. Brain malfunctions and gaps reflected on the mind, which begins to malfunction, distorts; compresses and dilates time at will, erases it, disintegrating it.
But without a narrative anymore, who are we? What have we become if we no longer have a past, when everything fades and memory crumbles, piece by piece?
The investigation of The Caretaker is conceptually directed at the slow drift of a mind that consumes, stage by stage, its memories, and everything erases.
