The feeling of standing beside someone in a room where the light keeps changing, where what they see is real, what I see is real, and neither of us can make it steady. Not a problem to solve. Just: what does it look like to stay there, to not flinch, to let the contradiction be?

The feeling of standing beside someone in a room where the light keeps changing, where what they see is real, what I see is real, and neither of us can make it steady.
