THE PHILIPPINES MATRIX PROJECThttp://philcsc.wordpress.com/2008/08/20/emergency-signals-from-exile/ [THE PHILIPPINES MATRIX PROJECT] EMERGENCY SIGNALS FROM EXILE: From these excursions into delinquent and wayward paths, we return to the idea of transit, passage, a movement of reconnaissance in search of a home everywhere, that is, wherever materials are available for building a shelter for work and community.
