We are nature, our fingertips pointing towards portals of the spiritual, the incorporeal, the infinite.

We are the collective body, an ancient body, a heavenly body.

We are permeable. Eternally becoming.

We are.

We are together now, creating a new code, a cryptic, spontaneous and absolutely necessary code. The perpetual movement and the ever-connecting energy oscillates, rises, and falls...It expands and contracts, flows, curls, collides.

Scientific data has become the catalyst for extending the habits of the imagination into poetic realms. Modern science tells us of an extraordinary range of interrelationships. Now more than ever, it is clear that we are parts of a whole. We cannot ignore that the sea around us is the same, and our foundations are shared. As far as long as there is an Us.

«What do you contain? The Dead. Time. The light patterns of millennia. The expanding universe opening up in your gut. Seven metres of intestines loaded with stars (…) We are the beginning. We are before time».

—Jeanette Winterson (Gut Symmetries,1999:02).
