The Migratory Books have now reached China, Uruguay, and Italy. Thanks to Blaise Tobia and Virgina Maksymowicz, who carried and released a Migratory Book in China. Virginia writes, "I'm attaching a photo of us in Guilin, the place where all those traditional Chinese landscape painters made their watercolors. Just like when we saw the New Mexico hills that Georgia O'Keefe painted, we now realize that the Chinese painters were super-realists, not abstractionists!"
In addition, two Migratory Books are part of the Concentrado Poesia Experimental event in Montevideo, Uruguay, organized by Clemente Padin. This event will take place in the Galeria de Ministerio de Educacion y Cultura in August 2008.
The Migratory Books are also part of the BAU Container of Contemporary Culture's multimedia festival, taking place in Viareggio, Italy. The theme of 2008 Festival is PLACES OF UTOPIA, and will feature a hands-on reading room of books called THE UTOPIAN LIBRARY. This library will feature among others, the Migratory Books, and selections of books from the Ethereal Open Network archive.

Virginia escribió, "Yo que ata una foto de nosotros en Guilin, el lugar donde todos esos pintores del paisaje del chino tradicional hicieron sus acuarelas. Apenas como cuando vimos las colinas de New México esa Georgia O'Keefe pintó, nosotros ahora realiza que los pintores chinos eran estupendo-realistas, no los abstractionists!"

We are connected by the soul lines along which we move, called by our need to transcend circumstance and seek out sources of satisfaction. We are driven by the desire to manifest our yearning for a place to be rather than merely to dwell. We stride out, prompted by visions of grand journeys and adventures, rather than dreams of safety and small pleasures. We depart from places that nurtured our bodies for a while to seek out people and places that might nurture our dreams. We answer a call to flock, like to like, spirit to spirit, with others of our wide-strewn tribes. Our souls are like drops of oil in an ocean of water. Our passages across time zones and uncharted spaces are our journey to the surface, where we may connect - again - to become what we are, rather than what we were told we might be in a world that was not truly ours.

The book I was holding has now been released again and is travelling to Spain.
