STUDY FOR A NARRATIVE, 2011, GALLERY PIECE (CHOSEN)
flash movie
When I was a boy, I was convinced that I was chosen.
I imagined how I could become Jezus.
But at night, not being able to sleep,
I saw visions of murder and pillage,
and was much troubled.
My visions where of two separate categories.
One category was of the images turning and changing,
slowly gathering form.
The second category was of the sudden flash,
of the revelation.
In some periods,
the visions frightened me so badly that I feared the advent of the  
evening,
and my bed.
It was only later that I realised that both categories were the work  
of the devil.

STUDY FOR A NARRATIVE, 2011, GALLERY PIECE (APPARITION)

say -v Vicki -o  /Users/geert/Sites/_nznl/20071013/1.aiff "When a  
show was on, and it was quiet, as it sometimes was, I would find  
myself, unthinking, comtemplating the reflection of the whiteness of  
the wall on the polished wooden floor. Gradually I started to realise  
that I loved these apparitions more than the art I showed, and so I  
slowly began to despise the ugly materiality of even the most  
exquisite works, as the need grew within me to rid my gallery of all  
objects."

STUDY FOR A NARRATIVE, 2011, GALLERY PIECE (INNER STRENGTH)

#!/usr/bin/env bash
say -v Vicki "I remember the first time my intellectual abilities  
made an impression. I was a member of the Brownies in our remote  
village, I suppose I was about 7 or 8. We sat in a circle, cross- 
legged. The Akela asked us to comment on some subject, I don't  
remember what exactly. When it was my turn, I felt some hitherto  
unknown inner strength gathering momentum as I spoke. When I was  
finished, the group was silent. Shortly afterwards, I was promoted to  
Second."

say -v Bruce -o  /Users/geert/Sites/_nznl/20071015/1.aiff "I remember  
quite distinctly when I first discovered my individuality. I might  
have been 7, or 8. I was running home from school, for lunch. I  
noticed my shadow dancing in front of me in the midday sun, and I  
remember also, that I thought it strange I should be able to position  
myself through my negative."

STUDY FOR A NARRATIVE, 2011, GALLERY PIECE (THOUGHT)

#!/usr/bin/env bash
say -v Vicki -o  /Users/geert/Sites/_nznl/20071016/1.aiff "In my  
thought, the most universal, most abstract concepts are to be found  
in the most intricate, most detailed, smallest objects. As such, the  
grandest of all concepts should consequently be found in the smallest  
objects imaginable. Which means that these objects should be small to  
the verge of being absolutely non-existent."

STUDY FOR A NARRATIVE, 2011, GALLERY PIECE (POWER)
flash movie
#!/usr/bin/env bash
say -v Vicki "When I discovered my power, that is, my control over  
the power of language, I realised I could change reality. The images  
I projected with my talks seemed so vivid, so real, that my audience,  
after listening to me, would go out into the world and actually build  
what I had proposed."
