about

'I have been seen seeing, looking' is an examination of what it means to see - beyond just looking, beyond the simple, yet still largely poorly understood physical reality of light and its effect on our sensory apparatus.

The speaker is a woman on a dose of LSD, recorded in a clinical experiment conducted in 1956.

The music tracks on Bandcamp are excerpts from an installation work called 26 Suicides. They are in stereo, offering a taste of the installation.

Listen to them if you are not afraid of dangerous modern art.

If you think that there is value in this work, a wee payment would be nice, but that is entirely up to you. Check out the 'Merch' link above for more goodness.

lyrics

Words spoken:

- - - - - -
This is reality.

I wish I could talk in technicolor.
I've never seen such infinite beauty in my life.

I can see everything in color - everything.
You have to see the air.

Can you see it?
It's right here in front of me - right here - right now!
Watch.

Can't you feel it?
Everything is so beautiful and lovely and... and... alive.

Everything is in color, and... and... I can feel the air.
I can see it.
I can see all the molecules.
I mean, I'm part of it.
Can't you see it?

Yes, everything is one.
You have nothing to do with it.
I am one - with what I am.

And the dimensions, and all those prisms, and all the rays...
And everything coming down through you...
And moving...

I can't tell you about it.
If you can't see it, then you'll just never know.

I feel sorry for you.

about

BK Australia

BK makes dangerous modern art.

As a synesthete, BK experiences sound and vision as a jumbled, blended mix. The art is all about trying to externalize that experience.
