Maya Deren, el análisis mata la magia

“I developed this vision which sees before facts, the better to find sensations and divinations... It is possible I avoided learning the names of composers and their music the better to close my eyes and listen to the mystery of all music as an ocean. It may be I never learned the dates in history in order to reach the essence of timelessness. It may be I never learned geography the better to map my own routes and discover my own lands. The unknown was my compass. The unknown was my encyclopedia. The unknown was my science and progress.”

Anaïs Nin on Maya Deren
