Experiment Seven: Dineo Seshee Bopape

SENT -
i started a bit early 5pm, ran a bath and put the song "it's only a papermoon" sang by ella fitzgerald, very loudly in the house.
the bath had some oil that was a gift from a hypnotherapist friend
 i sat in the tub from about 5.30
thought about both of you
your faces, your voices, your gestures
-just so i could channel you...kind of metaphorically dialling your numbers...
i projected the lyrics of the song...
Say, its only a paper moon
Sailing over a cardboard sea
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me
Yes, it's only a canvas sky
Hanging over a muslin tree
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me
Without your love
It's a honky-tonk parade
Without your love
It's a melody played in a penny arcade
It's a Barnum and Bailey world
Just as phony as it can be
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me
I never feel a thing is real
When I'm away from you
Out of your embrace
The world's a temporary parking place
Mmm, mm, mm, mm
A bubble for a minute
Mmm, mm, mm, mm
You smile, the bubble has a rainbow in it
Say, its only a paper moon
Sailing over a cardboard sea
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me
Yes, it's only a canvas sky
Hanging over a muslin tree
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me....
i mainly focused/sent through images of paper moons and canvas skies...
after the bath- i wished i had bought some flowers earlier at the shop...

RECIEVED - 
Robyn saw:
A real life plant in a pot

Lauren saw:
a cartoon bear,
rolling in a circular movement from right to left,
through real life fresh grass with flowers
