Consider what it means to move, not as in leave or flee, but to move. To change is to move. To grow is to move. For some of us our environments offer a space and a context for us to move within them, however this is not the case for many more of us. As both a meditation and a listening exercise, On Freedom Of Movement (wi de muv) considers the necessity and inevitability of movement and the ability of the environments we live in to create the space we need.
