June 18th

Recording voices.

Spent the morning recording the voices of two actor friends, Avi Pnini and Razia Yzreeli, who kindly lent us their time to read a few poems and biblical quotes that we hope to incorporate into the soundtrack of our project.

Here’s a fragment from Yehuda Amichai that  beautifully summarizes the interesting paradoxes of Time experienced here:

 

Through the window that is no longer there, we see our children

 searching the old ruin for toys they lost yesterday

 and turning up broken clay jars from centuries ago.

 The chasm between generations fills up with dust and sand,

 human bones, animal bones, a multitude of broken vessels

A broken jar tells the truth. A new jar is the lie of beauty.”
