Glimpses of a Mind in Process
It’s not exactly true to say that I always envisioned the Corona Lectures as a method of two-way communication. I never expected a direct response to the work. What I hoped, instead, was that the Corona Lectures might inspire or encourage other people experiencing the disorientation and weirdness of life in the time of COVID-19 to reach out in their own way, to project across the chasms between us, chasms that were always there but which became more obvious under lockdown (whether externally- or self-imposed) something art-ish, art-like, that felt perhaps new, perhaps different, but most importantly appropriate to the situation in which we found ourselves. And that there would be enough people doing this for it to feel like a conversation.
