when men fly...

circa 1900 photograph of a man flying

this afternoon i too will be floating off into the sky... landing in paris, and then belgium for the happy new ears festival. i'll be installing two new sound installations, both inspired by rodenbach's bruges-la-morte, in a nun's house from the 1200's in kortrijk. i will post some documentation when i return in a few weeks. if i have wireless access i might post some findings along the way, otherwise airforms will be a bit quiet, so check out some of the folks listed in the links.

the above photograph is circa 1910, and i have no idea how, what, or why... but it is truly amazing, clearly the gravitational pull of something or someone has got him floating off into the luminiferous aether.
