(11:00.) “In a way of speaking you could say these centers fall through space, but they really fall through the space of themselves. (Jane shook her head, her eyes closed.) As they fall backward through themselves — I’m getting this — I don’t know how to say it — the faster-than-light particles collapse in on top. The dead hole seems to swallow itself, with the real fast particles like a lid that gradually diminishes … From our point of view the hole is closed, say, once the faster-than-light particles follow the slower core backward into beginnings.”
(10:22. In a voice quite a bit deeper and stronger than usual, but not as overpowering as I’ve heard it be on occasion, Jane began to express a series of very “long,” drawn-out syllables. I’d expected anything from a whisper to a scream. What follows at first are my phonetic interpretations of the sounds she uttered. Her eyes were closed, her head still down. [When Jane reads these typed notes she may not agree with some of my approximations.] Now in a heavy voice, almost grating:)
(10:35. Jane paused briefly, her eyes closed. Suddenly her voice became high-pitched and, at first, quite incomprehensible to me because of the rapidity of her speech. The effect was remarkably like that of a tape recording played too fast: Her voice went way up the scale, issuing from stiffly held lips. After a few moments I began to understand her:) “— on another level this is completely unintelligible — at another level the pieces are completely unintelligible —”
(10:38. Jane slumped in her rocker, eyes closed. She had trouble getting them open. She remembered giving the variations on the sounds and methods of speech. She told me that “something” wanted to manifest through her so slowly that it was almost inexpressible; she’d felt deep rolling sounds going through her, yearning to be translated, yearning to make sense in our terms. “It would have taken me three hours to do it right.” The slow material simply came out that way when she tried to express it. She couldn’t really understand what “they” wanted her to do, if anything.
