Measured Years.
Eleven forms drawn from my bipolar experience: recorded rest and movement, a care date held in bodily context, shopping traces, self-references, and returns to writing. The body and voice belong to different eras; each form shows the observations it actually has.
new / body textures
10 / stride
Speed rises, stride length falls. Paired measurements open into separate passages for each recording source.
11 / sleep texture
A broken halo holds the structure inside recorded sleep. Five-minute silhouettes keep the open spaces.
abstract / body archive 2018–2022
07 / undertow
Hourly rest lifts the edges of a field of contours. Each filament keeps one recorded window.
08 / rift
Sleep and movement open into two wings. Smaller red filaments carry communication.
09 / lacuna
Floating voids hold recording gaps of up to two weeks. Enclosed areas grow with missing-date counts.
body / recorded sleep 2018–2022
04 / noon rings
One spiral gathers the recorded dates around the current selection. Gray slashes retain unrecorded dates.
05 / held date
Fifty-seven days of sleep, movement and communication around one retrospectively stated care date.
06 / rest / motion
Yellow rest and blue movement open into a woven field. One paired loop keeps each observed date.
voice / authored records 2023–2026 · shopping 2024–2025
01 / want
Shopping hours, from a glance to a cart to a purchase flag. State and care references sit on the same calendar.
02 / counterpoint
Before on the left semicircle. After on the right. One thread per retained reference; observed values fill a shared scale.
03 / return paths
Departures below, returns above. A field of intervals, with the few retained state and care references shining through.
