==== | ====Mind the Gap==== | ||
I decided I wanted to take the London Underground Announcement recording 'Mind the gap' from the 1960's and play it, out of context, in the streets of Weimar. | |||
When the phrase is out of context (not meaning between the platform and the station) any other, new meaning/s can be attributed to it. | |||
My own reading of this iconic phrase out of context: Is that it asks us to pay attention to the gap BETWEEN thoughts. A way of meditation. The gap here being the space of awareness between mental activity, which, this space of awareness is always there, present, when there is thought and when there is no thought. | |||
Others could take this in other directions, the gap between education and work or cultural gaps. Or physical gaps, like the one between the two libraries in Weimar... | |||
