C’est l’heure, il est minuit, comme dans les contes. Il y a deux ans à Paris, j’ai rencontré un Böö, un chamane Mongol. Il m’a donné un conseil : « Écoute le son du vent. Va au contact de la nature et laisse-la te soigner. Il te faut retrouver la Terre Mère. » Aujourd'hui, je pars en quête de son et de sens. » C'est le début du carnet de voyage sonore de Vincent Guiot.

"Des sources fiables, dit cette amie, lui assuraient que le Sub, alias le souscommandant Marcos, était à La Realidad [...] Marcos est dans la réalité."

Cuatro de cada cinco latinoamericanos viven en ciudades, pero no son ciudades como las que uno imagina cuando piensa en Barcelona o en París. Para saber cómo son -cómo es Latinoamérica- decidí volver a hacer eso que siempre me ha gustado hacer: ir, mirar, escuchar, pensar, contarlo." - Martín Caparrós
