Narrator: There’s just silence surrounding you, an uncoloured, primordial silence. If you didn’t know better, it might make you feel: Dullness Anguish Sorrow Dislike Vexation of spirit Vacation of spirit Sickness Etc. But you’re not one to feel any of those, are you, Renée, destroyer of worlds, bringer of doom? YES OR NO? Renée, destroyer of worlds, bringer of doom: NO // A Host of Possible Dramas and Exchanges is an exercise in automatic writing, a response to how thought feels as it rattles around inside the skull, extruding its way through a filter of language and penmanship. An assemblage of events, true and imagined, in a slurry of semi-autobiographical extensions. Somewhere inside the lines of fabrication are semblances of T-R-U-T-H (as opposed to) pure fiction. This episode of A Host of Possible Dramas and Exchanges : “The Lamb of Tartary” is a film and simultaneous performance, written for Andreas Borregaard, which focus it’s lens on the writings of Athanasius Kircher, a jesuit scholar and polymath who pontificated, drew extensive illustrations and bravely, formidably, got things wrong throughout most of the 17th century. He’s the type who lowers himself down tenderly into a sputtering, churning volcano - to collect data. You know the type.
