This past June I spent five weeks in North Africa participating in an art-research project called Beyond Digital: Morocco. I watched and froze the sprawling urban panorama that vibrated behind heat waves, until the voices faded away. More began to rise, until the many voices braided the air around us. Opaque echos of a single prayer call grazed us with the coming breeze.
Dusty trails wandered toward the center, where they crisscrossed then extended further outward toward mosques, half made tenement blocks and shanty towns. We reached a vast field just beyond Casablanca’s limit.
