contributions
We invite you to read, watch, and listen to a variety of contributions and materials that have been conceived of as extensions and insights into our collaborations, facilitations, and programs. Predominantly commissioned by Spore, it is a repository of sonic notes, stories, poems, essays, and tools authored by individuals from different walks of life. They are published in their multiple original languages with occasional translations.
This booklet is a memory, a small celebration and the testimony of many conversations, and a wonderful collaboration centered on the Melipona bee in Maní, Yucatán.

I grew up in the foothills and later I traversed across many of its great landscapes and its lofty glacial peaks, lush meadows full of magical indigenous flowers and most importantly its awe inspiring trees. So when I heard about the loggers and contractors I scrambled up the mountain to see for myself as to what was happening to its endangered forests.

notesIf we look at the individual drop of water as both a hydrological and at the same time a socio-cultural medium - this is how rivers are an interaction of the individual drops - the carriers of life along our earth's crust.
