This is a recording of the audio of "Living Room", an instalation put together by argentine painter Guillermo Kuitca, inspired by an instalation David Lynch did based on ane of his own drawings.
This exhibit was showcased at the Centro Cultural Kirchner (CCK) in Buenos Aires, Argentina, between october 2017 and june 2018.
The text was written by David Lynch and read by Patti Smith.
The story narrated by Patti Smith tells us about an Antelope, and Maybe!..., this has something to do with ANTELOPE DONT RUN NO MORE.

To echo what I said in the other thread, this is very much worth listening to for any Lynch fan. Set aside a half hour, close your eyes, and sink into this world.
 
It gives a pretty good insight into what Antelope Don't Run No More would have been like. Ties in pretty much with how it was described in Room to Dream as an Inland Empire type continuum, the fixation on animal life that goes back through Lynch's work, even the "laughing or crying" motif in that story is also a recurring line in the song Pinky's Dream written around the same period.

Interesting as well how that story format kind of explicates Lynch's meaning in a way he probably wouldn't have done so directly in film form.
