Where Is My Mind?

"Where Is My Mind?" treats disorientation as a simple bodily fact. The opening instruction turns the listener upside down, then links that physical inversion to collapse and self-questioning. The title line is not a request for information. It is what the mind says when it notices it is no longer where the body expected it to be.

The water memory deepens that condition without explaining it. The Caribbean scene, hidden animals, and the little fish trying to speak are funny, uncanny, and precise at the same time. They prove the question has an elsewhere to go to. The words can spin, collapse, swim, and fragment because the track keeps giving them a reliable frame. By the outro, the meaning is not solved; it is reduced to remnants of the same inversion, almost practical enough to dance through.
