Protective Silence — Linear Note
The title Protective Silence reflects the understanding that silence can be an intelligent response to overwhelming circumstances. It can create distance from danger. It can provide time for observation. It can safeguard experiences that are not yet ready to be spoken aloud.
Within The Body Kept the Record, this recording explores silence not as something broken, but as something that may once have served an important function.
