think one of the things about limits is it makes you try to work it out. And that's part of how I like to do things I like to work them out, I don't want, you know, it's not about having something ideal, or glossy, but something that you can work out. And I guess that's where these books come out from. That's where, also the, the idea of penetrating a surface, you know, trying to put something on top of something, layers
01:43
if you'd like were to close your eyes, could you sort of imagine, like the narrative of the work
01:49
through touch? If you were to think of your intuition,
02:08
for me, is really prominent. It kind of feels maybe older, because the material, the paper is thicker, and almost like, I suppose like an ancient scroll. With the braille... almost feels like it has like a lot of wisdom within like, like maybe, like, maybe it's like circuitry or something. But like a time lost, I
02:48
felt a bit overwhelmed just then losing that sense that I'm so used to. Especially because of the nature of what it is, it is a picture. And when I think of a picture, I think of looking at something. So it's kind of like challenging, challenging me to feel the picture and not just, like rely on that sense, which I'm so used to. So I was actually getting a bit frustrated because I felt like I was missing out on action. But really, I was just not acknowledging the action I could get from a different sense.
03:20
I think what it is, is that we all have a way of how we react to things. And there is that many things, I think I want to do this now. And then I'm gonna push for it to do it as soon as, but I think because of the nature of photography, where you can accumulate quite a lot in the, you know, in a fairly, let's say quick time. But it's something where you know, a because I come from an analogue time, I have to work to get every picture to a place where I can see it. Like, develop the film, I have to either scan it or print it, whatever it is, but those things I started to when I started doing my work to value
05:00
I definitely my stomach I really feel it in my stomach. And it's like I wouldn't even know how to describe the feeling but I just know it is that and recently I've been getting a lot better at breathing into my stomach because I'm trying to be able to channel that feeling so that I can kind of like not control it but just understand it better and understand what it's trying to tell me. But yeah, really for me is right here
06:06
For me time is something, intuition is actually my guiding principle because I just can't be bothered to sit down and write a plan. To me that's also why we're here because I think this is something I didn't expect. But actually this could be you know, another, another level.
06:30
I was just thinking as well, when I saw this as a means as a tool for reflection, reflection as a process towards like, reward and reward in this context being a more linear presentation of time of what's reflected. Understanding why I'm seeing this that time. Time as a means to separate these moments in process is is what gives birth to magic and cohesion and sensibilities and it's something that feels right

Black lives matter, Black lives have always mattered. Let me transport you. Say their names, say our names

What you know ‘bout that market smell? Eco style hair gel and auntie telling me she can do my hair nicely. I decline politely, thought my cornrows looked alright today but anyway. Right we, see three daughters on the crimson bus, Mum sets the trend with her leng curly pin up. Among the girls, an array of sensibilities, nurtured from the order their apple has fallen from the tree.

Oh to be, young and spritely! To be old, and rightly, Disgruntled by life’s strife with their life behind thee though still, giving it a crack anyway

I stand in solidarity with my brothers and sisters in the States, I stand in solidarity with my brothers and sisters in Estates.

But what you know about the time where our senses got the best of us, As some start their 9-5 daylight startles the rest of us. The comedown, When the sweat starts to dry and adrenaline wears off, Now we’re spiraling like the Fibonacci sequence - I can see the influence of the night on your face I wipe away lingering mascara and shame

Brown brick could never block us into silence is violence — no justice no peace

See, My heart belongs to the dance, My heart it beats to the march of the tenor of our people, An undeviating course of culture and a fight to be as people, It’s those militant eyes, that gather and protect, When the popo wants to declare our brudda as suspect, Cah Onto him they project
Conspiracy, of a ‘roaming’ IC3 in a Nike tech fleece, It’s seeing through eyes that have already seen It’s the accountability of the eye of our camera It’s, BLACK LIVES MATTER It’s, stop killing all the mandem stop killing all the man, them wind instruments made of water It’s, my Afro won’t fit in this guillotine So better luck next time with the slaughter
14:40
Dear Police, What would you say to the person you chose to slay? Does it have to be in braille for you to feel our words? Stop Killing the Mandem

What you know about conversation? Communication - Ahhh - Mmm - Hm? - Mmmmm. Well, you know about conversation. Perception, vibrations of understanding and perception.

My story remains a mystery while his story is taught as History, His story built off the backs of black and brown bodies The glory of Tories and their chants Drown out the sound of our humanising stories – these are unionising tales, Do you only emphasise when it sells?

I hear what you’re saying g Nah honestly, that makes sense to me, We’re not time managers, We’re time engineers, Engineer that shit correctly

I shed private tears for peers I’ve never met nor will I forget, How long will we choose to be Profit and property over People and our prosperity, I used to want to be equal Now I want equity Reparations – not just for descendants of slaves but for our whole Black Transatlantic Nation.
