What is the sound of Being? This is a central question explored after the reading of the meditation originally written Feb 15,2004. This is PPM3, which continues the exploration of evocative speech. It claims that evocative speech gathers us together and in dialogue we mutually draw our attention to what 'is not/not yet'. In turn, this dialogic relationship that is gathered by evocative speech is described as hermeneutic.
February 13, 2014 was the 10th anniversary of the original experiment that produced 363 phenomenological mediations, published as 'Being and Learning' (Brill: 2012). Each day between Feb 2014-15, I returned to the original meditations, and my commentary is documented here. And then, again, on February 15, 2024, on the 20th anniversary of the first days of the original experiment, I revisit and comment on a daily basis, once again.
10 years later to the day. The question, What is the sound of Being?, heard today, 20 years after the original experiment, is 'remixed' -- new category developed in my Nancy paper in summer 2023. 'Remixed' in the sense that the question 'sounds' different, is quieter, more dispersed, lighter, and not entirely tethered to the spoken word, or, rather, untethered from the spoken word. At the beginning of this 3rd go round, already, music makes its appearance, the poetic pushing against the boundaries of the prosaic.
