Extract from voice notes:
The reflections seem clearer and so does the salt. The salt is saltier. Everything amplified. In the mist, the seaweed looks like floating bodies preserved.
My spatial awareness is misty. My spatial awareness is muted, distance becomes futile, measurements are different, how do we measure inside the mist?
For a while I forget where I am, I forget there’s the beach with the people, the water has a quality that’s indescribable, it’s glistening but there’s no sun, is the mist bringing some kind of otherly quality to it, I don’t want to say otherly because that’s too obvious. It’s a new substance, an edge, the edge has been brought to the sea a fuzzy edge.

A softening of the rocks. A softening of the rocks
Water carriers memory.
Imagine a continual sea haar - your cheeks wet and your hair soaking, slowly. A heavy tick air that makes your nose drip.
A soothing connection. I want you to feel that your body is porous, messy, slipping, of meaning and an edge that is fluid.
When I exited the sea, on to the gritty beach my body pulsed as the blood pumped around, pump, pump, pump, red ears, cold extremities, my fingers are tingling, pink and white all at once. The crevices and holes are the first to be warm, I put my fingers in there, snuggled, the cold is a shock and the two temperatures start to merge.
Have you ever been swimming in the sea when its raining?
We cannot know ourselves as a point of reference in a world that has overtaken us, in the past and future. MURKY HORIZONS.
