Trance

Quotation
by Ramia Beladel

«Trance is like a boiling inside me. I become more open to myself, not through reflection, but through other means.»

This quote is taken from the sound piece «A Wasted Breath Inside a Balloon» by Gilles Aubry and Ramia Beladel. The video is part of the Norient Online Special Sawt, Bodies, Species, a joint publication with adocs, extending Gilles Aubry’s physical book Sawt, Bodies, Species: Sonic Pluralism in Morocco into a digital publication with additional video and audio materials. The Open Access publication of this book was made possible with the support of the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF).
