Upon entering the harbor, the voyager leaves the exceptional condition of the boundless sea-this traversable space of maritime immensity-to come ashore in an offshore place, in a container world that only tolerates the trans-local state of not being of this place-nor of any other really-but of existing in a condition of permanent not-belonging, of juridical non-existence. He comes to signify the itinerant body, bound to string along a chain of territories, never reaching a final destination. Probing the protocols of access time and again, he moves through non-civil places, waits for status in off-social spaces, only to remain suspended in the post-humanist lapse. What used to be a state of temporary exemption-survival in the fluid time-space of legal deferral-has slowly consolidated into the prime mode of migratory subsistence. The site of this existence is connected but segregated; it is the world system of contained mobility. (Video Data Bank)

Care work, awareness-raising, waste reduction. Thieboudienne, chaufa, paella. What do these recipes have in common? Who cooks them? Where?
