I asked my friends to rehearse and repeat any series of simple movements. On the basis of these movements I animated a drawing into their hands.

What pain? What music? What images in the mind? And where does it come from? Is it in the darkness of a closed park at night? In the back room of a Chinese bar? In the bottom of a beer? In a collective dance? In a sister's laughter? When does it finally happen? For the soul to let go.
