"The mind"

new piece

"The Mind"

comment by David Bateman

gorgeous music and video - the purple curtain at the end is just stunning as it blows and then ends with a powerful still shot - i remember hanging that curtain, and again, Wallace Stevens comes to mind with his words

For all his purple, the purple bird must have Notes for his comfort that he may repeat Through the gross tedium of being rare.
but i think i would revise Stevens and say
"for all its purple, the purple curtain must have songs for its comfort that she may repeat through the graceful billowing of being beautiful"   dbxo David Bateman
