“I suppose, for me, the ghost is the idea that your present experience increasingly becomes defined by loss. But never just your own loss, it’s everyone else’s losses as well, even though you can’t see them.”

“For me… ummm… I guess a ghost is something abstract, more like a presence beyond what we can physically see… possibly relating to an emotion that’s connected to a moment of time…”

“Yeah, exactly, like an emotion outside of yourself that you can’t get beyond?”

“I guess so, but also that it’s a state of mind that you are not even consciously aware of. That it’s not just something you can go beyond. It’s there and you have to deal with it.”

We are thinking mostly of memories of lost places, of a sense of loss, of places that we have built strong connections to and that have changed due to many reasons. How personal memory of a space fits into political changes in the use of that space.

Berlin is one of those places that we both hold strong memories. 

Alice is a painter who lives and works in Berlin.Ed is a poet who lives and works in London. For ten months in 2009 they both lived in Berlin.

Charlie Usher is principally a composer, sometime pianist, born in the UK and based in Brussels.
