cave  
  geometry  
                  
                            
        the name is a little mis-       
   giving, because of course there is   
 no  real geometry in the caves. you  may 
 feel as  if you  are venturing into some 
 vast  structure,  but you  are  in  fact 
 leaving any  such thing at the entrance. 
                                          
     leaving physical tethers behind,     
  submitting to an inescapable darkness,  
 the  world around you becomes more  of a 
 manifestation  of   your   mind,   or  a 
 collective  mind, with  a  shape  and  a 
          direction and a taste.          
                                          
  inescapeable darkness, because if you   
 bring   a  candle  or  mount  electrical 
 lights,  the   walls   only  serves   as 
 markers   to  where   the  tiny  spatial 
 existence ends and  the darkness beneath 
                it begins.                
                                          
 like an  inverted mandelbrot,  the  real 
 cave  is  actually not the pockets,  but 
 the  black  around them.  keep  that  in 
                   mind.                  
                                          
                      
                                          
 the  moisture  that  permeates any  cave 
 worth  it's name... it's the  water  the 
 world  rose  from.  it's  the  water you 
         drown in, in your dreams.        
                                          
 the only sounds in  the  cave  are those 
 that you  make  yourselves. they  may be 
 distorted  by the stone  structure,  and 
 amplified by  your mind.  try not to  be 
 alarmed,  try  to remember  the  persons 
 and  objects  around  you,  and  you can 
 discern   a  mirage   from   a   friend.
