Comments: My friend Ozan, from Zurich, reached out to his friend Tru to meet with us at the Bourse de commerce. The Pinault Collection. She brought a small vial of liquid and we consumed a micro-dose; one drop each. The sun started shining through the rainclouds, and we wandered inside the gallery. The primary exhibition at that time was "Before the Storm" by Danh Vo in the central rotunda. The organic materials curated throughout the room dissolved you into the oak. This overwhelming meditative sensation of integrating with the tree trunks from the forest . Reflecting on themes of time and natural decay. We left the museum and headed toward the 4th floor apartment across the street from the iconic cemetery. She also had a vaporizer full of frog medicine. We decided to go for it! Before heading into the cemetery to meet Jim Morrison from The Doors who was buried at the exquisite landmark. A few puffs and we melted into this warm white ethereal space where everything is clear colored and nothing exists outside of light, or time. All feelings and all ideas crystallized into consciousness. Reflecting again on the themes of time and natural decay. The great dance between life and death. Eureka! My eyes gleamed wide open. I sprouted up and grabbed the cameras. It was time to go. It was time to make the video. We walked through the Cemetery without a map and equipped with intuition. We located the painter Pissarro, and found Oscar Wildes wild tomb. We retraced our steps and saw a crowd surrounding Jim Morrisons grave. The group took a few photos and went on their way. We had a moment alone with the Rock and Roll legend. Giving thanks and leaving flowers for Jim. We prayed... Amen.
