On July 7, 2025, Lucrecia Dalt's heart stopped. She had suffered a severe epileptic seizure, and eight seconds would pass before it resumed beating. The next day, the Colombian musician released " caes," the third single from her breathtaking new album A Danger to Ourselves -a song that suggests, she says, "that the sublime can be reached through surrendering to the act of falling." For two days after her near-death experience, she soared, so overwhelmed by the beauty of her surroundings that she wondered if she had actually died and was experiencing the afterlife. She hadn't, of course, and the world that wowed her was the same one she occupied before her heart had stopped. She had just surrendered to the fall.
