Things I Forget to Tell Myself is an elusive reflexion on the disclosure and withholding of information; on what is shown or not shown. Asks Silver: "Once seen, how is it decoded and received?"  Images and sounds recorded in the streets of New York City are rhythmically intercut with a fragmented sentence:  "We waste time on absurd clues and the truth passes us by, without our knowing it."
