“While the familiar world outside devours itself beneath the shadow of unprecedented strangeness, one can always rely on the failure of reality to fail.”
“尽管外界熟悉的世界在前所未有的陌生阴影下吞噬自己,但人们总是可以依靠现实的失败来失败。”
Notes From A Pandemic seeks to document the psychic implosion surrounding the initial period of European quarantine. Taking the form of an abstract journal, a series of short poetry and prose evoke blurred vignettes of near-future conspiracy, personal reflection and weird transcendence; the pieces acting as a corrosive agent, exposing the hidden narrative that emerges between memory, media events and direct experience in the enforced isolation of a single room.
大流行病笔记旨在记录欧洲隔离初期的精神内爆。以抽象期刊的形式,一系列简短的诗歌和散文唤起了近乎未来的阴谋,个人反思和怪异超越的模糊小插曲;这些作品起着腐蚀剂的作用,揭示了在强制隔离一个房间中出现在记忆,媒体事件和直接体验之间的隐藏叙事。
