translating...

...:::...sometimes, it is just a matter of listening…of how you choose to hear, how you choose to process information. everyone brings such a different history to sounds through their own personal experience: a certain attitude towards reception. i find in my own work more and more the urge towards simplicity. almost with an animal-like lunge. feral…to the extent that i hope to eliminate explanation. that ideas stand on their own. makerless. giving different kinds of meaning to different kinds of people.

experience-depending.

and in language, i think that learning meaning through experience attaches a feeling to words...provides an association. below, seven translations of one of samuel beckett's mirlitonnade's, gives a certain perspective and context to this thought:

the original: reve/sans fin/ni treve/a rien (sorry, sans accent marks)

dream

all life one dream
to coin a scheme
whereby in time
to rhyme

: derek mahon

dream
without break
asleep
or awake
: robert chandler

dream
without end
nor rest
a nothing
: james kirkup

i like that point where words start to separate out of a continuous string of sound. as you begin to comprehend meaning of a new language...or perhaps meaning of a new way that rhythm and tonalities and beat come together. become cohesive and give structure. these relationships are begging exploration. they are hungry and curious for adaptation. perhaps, even, modification...:::...
