In the ancient tension between the visible and the invisible, a reality television personality has chosen the most human of responses to an artist's deliberate silence: he will simply show up. Spencer Pratt, armed with a letter and the assistance of Irish pop duo Jedward, plans to travel to Enya's castle in Killiney, Dublin, to request permission to sample her music — and if she does not answer, he will wait in a nearby pub. The gesture, however earnest or absurd, illuminates the quiet power of an artist who has made absence itself into a kind of presence.
