About Train Sonor

Train Sonor, a work in progress. This collection of compositions follows Saint Augustine's motto:

TIME CAN ONLY BE PERCEIVED OR MEASURED WHILE IT IS PASSING. — Saint Augustine.

Saint Augustine (AD 354-430) was bishop of Hippo in Roman Africa from 396 to 430 and may have been the most important theologian of the early Christian church during the last days of the western Roman Empire. His best known works are the Confessions, The Soliloquies and the City of God.

The Soliloquies of St. Augustine, translated into English by Rose Elizabeth Cleveland. With Notes and Introduction by the Translator (Boston: Little, Brown, and Co., 1910).

Augustine of Hippo, The Confessions of Saint Augustine [translated by Edward Bouverie Pusey] [adelaide.edu].

Aurelius Augustinus

There are all things preserved distinctly and under general heads, each having entered by its own avenue: as light, and all colours and forms of bodies by the eyes; by the ears all sorts of sounds; all smells by the avenue of the nostrils; all tastes by the mouth; and by the sensation of the whole body, what is hard or soft; hot or cold; or rugged; heavy or light; either outwardly or inwardly to the body. All these doth that great harbour of the memory receive in her numberless secret and inexpressible windings, to be forthcoming, and brought out at need; each entering in by his own gate, and there laid up. Nor yet do the things themselves enter in; only the images of the things perceived are there in readiness, for thought to recall. — The Confessions, BOOK X

Des espaces autres [Foucault]

"Der Raum, in dem wir leben, durch den wir aus uns herausgezogen werden, in dem sich die Erosion unseres Lebens, unserer Zeit und unserer Geschichte abspielt, dieser Raum, der uns zernagt und auswäscht, ist selber auch ein heterogener Raum. Anders gesagt: wir leben nicht in einer Leere, innerhalb derer man Individuen und Dinge einfach situieren kann. Wir leben nicht innerhalb einer Leere, die nachträglich mit bunten Farben eingefärbt wird. Wir leben innerhalb einer Gemengelage von Beziehungen, die Plazierungen definieren, die nicht aufeinander zurück zu führen und nicht miteinander zu vereinen sind."

— Foucault: Andere Raeume [pdf] [Aus dem Französischen von Walter Seitter]. In neuer Übersetzung in: Schriften [Dits et Ecrits] Band IV. 1980-1988, S. 931-942: Von anderen Räumen. Des espaces autres. suhrkamp.de: Michel Foucault: Schriften in vier Bänden. Dits et Ecrits [time4time/heterotopien]
