An immersive music & visual art film generated from the practice of autogenic training in the life of a person with a respiratory condition.

 

Two Weeks on a hospital bed, following the breath to an inner secret life of memories and dreams. Phasing in and out of wakefulness, the veil between the real and imagined begins to blur.

 

Two Weeks was created out of recorded interviews with a number of people, all completed since the Covid-19 pandemic struck. Stories of secret lives emerged, revealing a colourful spectrum of states of mind, emotions, and experiences of life as it is today. This is an exploration of rehabilitation.

 

 

Breath is the most intimate relationship we have in life.

It’s the cry of the newborn, the first sign of consciousness;

an access point to a healing space.

Deep in the healing space, time is not linear— dreams and memories swirl about, all at once.

Two Weeks is the music of what happens in the healing space.

Fiddle & viola music // visuals // electro-acoustic music.
