What is recorded here

Knockyrourke is a lost chamber in a live room, not a dead chamber in a lost room. The room is an ordinary Irish field, a road, a kitchen, a body, a dream, a camera, a room, a game, a god, a wound or a world. That is why it can be judged, remembered, filmed, wounded, imagined or transformed. The chamber is the difference between a separate person and a continuous living system.
