Tried to listen to the park while walking, the way one listens to a concert of musicians playing something you are unfamiliar with, like a whole other culture’s music and you are surprised by what they are repeating and what instrumentation they use or what rhythms are favoured. Moved on to consider everything a theatre set and this walk like being on stage, trying to not flub my role as the guy walking through the park, entertaining endless streams of thinking, wondering whether it was possible to suspend the voice over, even 5 or 10 seconds. When I was younger I thought it might be like a muscle one could exercise and increase the ability to turn mind off. Seemed the goal of many meditation or mystical systems; remember yourself; be here now; fortinos will not be undersold. Indeed, could it be simpler? Might just be take what you know from being an open minded concert goer and apply it to all and everything.
