[00:00.000]	作曲 : Laurie Anderson
[00:00.248]	Gordon Matta-Clark died young.
[00:02.672]	And he died in an amazing way.
[00:06.879]	Gordon was a good friend of mine. And he was a sculptor.
[00:12.061]	One of his most well known works was called Splitting,
[00:15.865]	in which he sawed a suburban house in half.
[00:19.782]	He was a minimalist,
[00:21.962]	and there was a lot of advanced theory about why he cut houses in half.
[00:27.087]	Although, none of the theories talked about his parents' divorce,
[00:31.027]	Or what happened one day when his twin brother jumped to his death out of Gordon's window  .
[00:43.072]	When Gordon got sick, he decided to make his death very social.
[00:49.330]	And so he invited his friends to come to the hospital.
[00:52.984]	And he had only 24 hours left to live.
[00:56.451]	The length of time that his system was breaking down.
[00:59.550]	And he decided to spend this time reading to his friends.
[01:07.895]	And when he died there were two lamas on either side of him.
[01:11.839]	And when he stopped breathing they began shouting into his ear.
[01:17.185]	Now, the Tibetans believe that hearing is the last sense to go.
[01:22.234]	So after the heart stops, and your brain flatlines,
[01:26.094]	and the eyes go dark, the hammers in the ears are still working.
[01:33.411]	And so they shout instructions from the Tibetan Book of the Dead,
[01:36.963]	also called 'The Great Liberation Through Hearing'
[01:39.719]	And they yelled "Gordon! You're dead! You're dead now!"
[01:46.295]	And they say "You see two lights, and one is near you, and one is far away.
[01:51.246]	And don't go to the near one - go to the one that's far away..."
[01:54.363]	And so on, and so on, and so on, and so on...
[01:59.211]	I've seen three ghosts in my life now.
[02:02.576]	And the first was Gordon.
[02:05.506]	A few hours after he died.
[02:08.868]	He appeared on the back porch of the commune I was living in.
[02:14.719]	Every love story, is a ghost story.' (Ghost story, ghost story.)
[02:26.864]	Said David Foster Wallace.
