A sound which was held by shoes – string – shoes – to avoid cutting deep into the wood. //Cruidhean nan Teud// A portable series of [[strings ->alternative page?]], a lightness of touch conserved the energy and on hearing, a deep ringing through the body, playing even in stillness, on stone, situated, situating in fine lines, held back to the 8th century. You come across in a museum a strange harp that has no strings, or yes it does, but only strings cast and swept and directed by the wind, passing through, chance, luck, playing the music. No human is required to make it sing, states the instruction, only a good position in a stiff breeze. Time passes, stillness settles and a single note flutters. [[You breathe ->wait 2]].

(set: $keys to true) {<audio src= "three strings layer 1.mp3" autoplay>} Three strings are strung together: on a treble piano note, on a piece of code, on the braid of a child’s hair. Three strings cling to each in sounds, desire and intimacy. Three is the number of psychoanalysis: id, ego and superego, factual reality, psychic [[reality ->river]], constructed reality.

Nothing bad has happened but nothing great either, or no, you think, nothing certain. We make choices and we have to continue to live with them, and wonder what their reverberating effects will be.

{<audio src= "three strings layer 1.mp3" autoplay>(set: $melancholy to true)} The past few years have been heavy, a split string constantly sounding out its own breakage. A deep sound, distant at first, but gathering velocity, gathering distance. A [[crackling ->Listen]] in of sound, not yet voice, on the radio. Wires replacing string. The computer replacing the hand. The code replacing the weave. So many strings to fall into, all directed onto the self. When the telephone was invented, people thought you could hear the soul. When the telephone was invented, many cut the wires. In a small village, Wi-Fi finally arrives, a local man climbs to the top of a pole and cuts it all down and everyone is annoyed. You’ve always thought of wires like entrails, a body exposed. There is a violence in that. You wonder [[where ->alternative page 2]] the soul is located here.
