we had not planned to go so far, so we had to hike about a kilometer up to the lake at the base of the glacier at a run so as not to get caught in the dark. We were rewarded with a view that haunts me still: a glass lake mirroring the mottled face of this vast Thing that vanished into its own whiteness and the sky. Whew. The scenery begins to remind me more and more of the High Mojave in winter (actually not as bitterly cold as that!). There is this Vastness and Silence. And it was clear every night, so there was one night where the Aurora Borealis composed a massive musikal abstrakt composition spanning the entire sky with bands and streamers of green that changed every second and seemed to be the aura of all the 5 billion souls on this earth.

here is direct access to the growing catalog of ambient travelog video samples
(mp4 & mov files) collected as neoscenes moves through time and space. it
is a retro-speculative process: there is never time contemporaneous to live
and to document life in the same moment. so, re-creation is left for interstitial
moments when in-your-face living can be disrupted (or run away from). you
will need a broadband connection and Quicktime (stand-alone or plug-in)
to view the files.

People will speak, They will not speak in order to convince, or to drown the noise of silence. They will speak because it will be easy to do so, and because life will surge from their mouths together with the words. Everything will be filled with life. There will no longer be room for anything dead or unintelligible.
