i hadn't intended to take a break, but right now I'm very preoccupied with moving back to San Francisco and looking for a job and all of that stuff, so posting will be light (ha!) for the foreseeable future. Forgive.

- The books one reads in childhood, and perhaps most of all the bad and good bad books, create in one's mind a sort of false map of the world, a series of fabulous countries into which one can retreat at odd moments throughout the rest of life, and which in some cases can survive a visit to the real countries which they are supposed to represent.
-- George Orwell
Geography and space are always gendered, always raced, always economical and always sexual. The textures that bind them together are daily re-written through a word, a gaze, a gesture.
-- Irit Rogoff
