Description

I dream I am at a conference in Adelaide. I run into an old friend and we go to the beach. In the dream I'm about to write. I start with the face. There were two 'I's on the face so I put two 'I's in the sentence. Then I wake up and realise I'm in Ingie's room in London, in transit. I'm on my way back to Australia from Iceland. In the dream I'd composed a sentence about the face so I get up and write it down. But I want to return to the dream and to the feeling of comfort that reunions with distant places and people can bring. Then it occurs to me that I am indeed on my way to a conference in Adelaide and that I have just been to a beach in Iceland. The beach is one of the rare beaches in Iceland that have sand. The sand is made up of distinct black and yellow grains. Diane pointed out that it had been produced by the action of the sea on the porous black and yellow volcanic rocks. In Iceland I had also attended a conference. I had talked about the split subjectivity of first-person scholarly writing. I realise suddenly that the first-person address has something to do with a different temporality. It lays claim to the present, just having arrived there as it were, anew. It's like you re-invent the world.
