Initiation to the Odyssey
“Long before birth, in its first life, a being floats in a sonic world. Long before sight, there is the ear, a shell of marine depths. Never closing its eyelid, it listens to each moment of its history in a single breath. This is how each one of us possesses a soundscape, untouchable, like air, and unique like an imprint.” 1
