24 February 2012

The winter still has a hold on the higher forests: sending mist to roll between trunks and sometimes to cast shadows of shadows, laminating the edges of the streams with sheets of ice, laying down a carpet of snow for our boots to creak over, for the sun to sparkle when the clouds part, for our other animals to mark their nocturnal activities on. The beech leaves that are submerged behind the fallen-branch-dams have swollen slightly and darkened to brown; chilled fingertips push the hydrophones to probe flows and slackenings but am I doing anything other than recording myself recording?


26 February 2014

Beams reveal the area that we clung to in last year’s darkness as a short, low-ceilinged ledge jutting out over a massive cavern. Fine mist steams rolling from our lips and nostrils through the torch-light. Sliding down the slopes, passing equipment between us I waver between vertigo and claustrophobia; water drips from the cave roof far above into glossy bowls hollowed from the rock, loose chips like dregs. The oblong LED strips cast shadows from a distended marbley protrusion in the centre of the cavern that guards the descent to the next level: this is the mountain within the mountain.
