narratives of a fellthinking extension

when we walk in this drift, love happens

Abstract

While wandering adrift through the streets and easements of the Vale do Carangola, Rio de Jaeiro, we do not walk at random, but motivated to encounter, in the direction and time determined by those who walk and by the daily life of where we walk... encounters do not happen just for the sake of it, they happen as a result of an interaction and if this interaction is recurrent, we are affected and changes happen to us and language happens... which touches us... and in the touch, which can be auditory, but can also be physical, through the embrace, affection happens, love happens... and in love, commitment happens, confluence happens. The text aims to tell the experience of wandering adrift and how we are affected by this movement. Drifting is an important concept, which together with walking, encountering and dialoguing, experience, the indicative paradigm, and the thinking-sentinel, make up the plot of what we have come to call a fellthinking extension.
