what we are

We are composed of movement. Whether in mind, body, or spirit, we cannot help but move and devise yet more ways to move faster, further. We contemplate life in space, we fidget in our sleep, traverse the subterranean. When we hear a stirring eulogy, we refer to ourselves as having been "moved". The lack of movement more often than not leads to a decay in body or mind. Exercise is often prescribed to those incarcerated in prisons, mental hospitals, schools, corporate jobs. "Moving home" offers the hope for a fresh start, a new beginning, in many ways, a re-birth. The movements of wind and water, the movements of the subterranean, we have mirrored in technology the movements within our bodies.

This journal explores such movements, questions their intent, and begs the question: is movement the universal commonality that unites us as human beings?
