No why just here is a phrase attributed to John Cage. The four words are individually powerful in their semantics; so powerful, that even when swapping their order within the phrase, they generate new meanings. The phrase echoes the images in this book. What the images depict and seek to communicate is left to the reader’s interpretation and the possibility of finding meaning in this space (      )

No why just here (      ) is a personal story of pushing limits, of inhabiting space, time, the body and the mind. The story finds its origin within a middle passage of low cabin pressure, and a lullaby about planes and ships.
