Bigness Bound by Time proposes a world outside of reality through an experimental screenscape structured around functions of the camera, light & lyric. Arrangements of Black spiritual scholarship are employed to reveal an idea of a conception that won't be immaculate through a chorus of Interdimensional Auties as they address Black matrilineal thoughts and concern of deprived innocence. This tale uses text and image to explore self-knowing as we follow the Big Bodied Voice as she becomes held in time and space. Confrontations from the consequences of weak sex, an optical power gained through space travel, the author leaves her notes to self on the page that hints to the fragility of the world as it is constantly being affected by shaping the realm as we know it.
