Listenings by Gretchen Blegen<o p=""></o>
Watch for water! are listenings that resonate with a river and its downstream. (the absence of a mouth). spending time with the Rio de las Animas Perdidas, a landscape that is both familiar and haunting to my body and lungs, I watch and listen for water. with an emphasis on language these listenings engage with tellings, re-tellings, slippages, translation and telepathy echoing past imaginings and re-imaginings of Place and context. segments of the listenings will be presented in ausland, sediments will be further developed into guided audio walks in September 2021. <o p=""></o>
Remote Viewing Reports (a telepathic channeling exchange) were developed in close exchange with and written by Catalina Insignares and Carolina Mendonça,<o p=""></o>
