A YouTube video of diabolo juggler that improvise with flat orbits and north winds, that atmosphere is cold and icy, and there is a tense calm that you can feel.
Practice session in a quiet space where movement and sound meet without haste. Airs from the north, cold and icy, anticipate a tense calm. The body seeks a stable plane, the diabolo responds with bare lines. The sound accompanies from a distance: I hold the pulse with cold skin.
Flat orbits and launches without spin. Short heights and horizontal returns, brief breaks in the flow to breathe and readjust. When the axis yields, I correct with care; just enough friction, a gentle hand. Does the plane remain readable? And the line clean?
Drawing in the Wind
I visualize sketches in the air
that I discard,
Ideas…
Ideas that
I organize and,
they fade before existing.
but a sprout from nothing
searches for its place.
I start again,
from within:
order
drills,
disorder
ruin,
dissolve
routine.
