" Memory as a place, as a building, as a sequence of columns, cornices, porticoes, rooms enfilade. The body inside the mind, as if we were moving around in there, going from one place to the next [..] To realise that one's steps, by taking one nowhere, are taking one nowhere but into oneself...What we are really doing when we submerge in a voodle is thinking, and thinking in such a way that our thoughts (re)compose a journey.[..] and even if we do not leave our room, it has been a journey, and we might safely say that we have been somewhere, even if we don't know where it is."

After recently having [casually] passed through an animated series of didactic spaces, Sam Renseiw attempted to reconstruct bits of hastily recorded footage into another tale, altogether.

On mnemonic & nostalgia [for former works]

" Somewhat like a memory leak, a legend will resurface and be retold when needed. The contours and form of appearance may change imperceptibly or drastically through time - depending entirely on the new context in which the legend is told. Lighting conditions may be altered, the scenario apparently changed - but he ethical electrifying layers of its basic substance remain the same throughout time."

Remaining hopelessly provincial, Sam Renseiw - while updating his alter-ego's picture gallery of former works, re-views selected spaces from a long gone exhibition. As all was taking place at the very end of last century, before the web's spread, there is only sparse documentation.
