Journeying:



a spacial movement. What has been sold is the actual change of place itself. Mobility - a privilage? The citizen/alien as refugee or exile or traveler organizes his desires and dreams of belonging by re:presenting a certain range of experiences, thereby offering the possibility for deep, affective investment among a community of like-minded others? Is space being really subsumed by time? Is there a new logic of space that requires even greater contestation than in the past? Maybe contestation is what is required. Then one would have to consider the strategies involved within the contestation and the role of thought within those strategies. To think no longer means to define, rather to arrange, to connect, to make possible, to give space to. And thus we arrive in the same place we was just tried to depart from: At the edge of a forest of gray laurel.
