Moving Matters is the medium publication of the “The Moving Matters Workshop”, a mobile collective of academics and artists whose art develops in the image of the serial migrant, evolving through a process of progressive inhabitation. Writers bring their mobile perspective to stories about world issues, social theory, art and daily life, as seen through the lens of their mobile lives. How does the local look from the perspective of those who have followed a migratory path? What concepts of politics might a serial migrant contribute? Or dancing, cooking or socializing? Moving Matters writers share their ideas, their art and their personal stories, contributing to a better understanding of the forces that enable or force some people to move and others to stay in place. For MMTW images and videos events and upcoming events see movingmatters@ucr.edu For the concept of serial migration read Moving Matters, Paths of Serial Migration by Susan Ossman (Stanford 2013).
