Er bod y pethau yma'n ddiflas ofnadwy, roedd bob amser bisin o Mars bar i'w gael os oeddwn yn cymryd y pethau yma'n hogan dda - ie pisin a dim bar.
The ideas surrounding the interlacing of sound with spaces and pauses became intertwined with my insights into binding and the references in Tok Pisin to the small spaces either piercing objects or between things--such as the holed sheets of Marsden Matting, which are called lais, (3) brought in by the Americans and left lying around Papua New Guinea in their thousands after the Second World War and subsequently used for a myriad of unrelated uses.
