[Inexplicable images from generations ago invite us to restore the lost
sense of immediacy. We follow the founder of the Theater of
Spontaneity, Jacob Moreno, who proposed stringing together "now and then
flashes" to unfetter illusion and let imagination run free. The images
we have collected for this series came at a tremendous price, which we explained previously.] |

What does a ringing bell communicate? " come to me, come to me." —Jean Ray, Malpertuis [emphasis ours, if we may be so bold]
Jozé Donoso's The Obscene Bird of the Night offers a different answer: "So let the churchbells ring, and the cattle bells / To let you know this love that in me wells."
However, Thomas Mann would seem to disagree: Bells, bells, they swing and sway, they wag and weave through their whole arc on their beams, in their seats, hundred-voiced, in Babylonish confusion. Slow and swift, blaring and booming—there is neither measure nor harmony, they talk all at once and all together, they break in even on themselves; on clang the clappers and leave no time for the excited metal to din itself out, for like a pendulum they are already back at the other edge, droning into its own droning; so that when echo still resounds: " In te Domine speravi" [In Thee, O Lord, I have hoped], it is uttering already " Beati quorum tecta sunt peccata" [Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven] into its own midst. — Thomas Mann, The Holy Sinner [emphasis ours] Mann adds a delicious tidbit. Who is ringing the bells? "It is the spirit of story-telling" [italics his].
