the archipelago

language slips in time

with tides of meaning

pulled by the moon

of the populous,

what was

once

sent out to sea

returns

to shore

in another form

A live sound feed of the gallery room and surrounding building, most prominently the air conditioner, was picked up by a condenser microphone above the scaffold, then projected down to the bench through Holosonic speakers, producing a narrow sound chamber one could hear when seated.
