Sobre IBD

Noble Sentiments for an Exile is an anthology of meditations on language, travel, and spirituality. The opening, stand-alone lyrical essay charts the anonymous traveler’s quest to animate the soundscape of words’ inner forms--the chain of sensory impressions that inform the memory and perhaps even the soul. This remarkable anthology was compiled over a period of ten years of travel in Russia, Scandinavia, and the former Soviet Republics. At the heart of this iconic collection lies the poetic memory that lives on through the author’s acoustic experience of these places.

At the same time, there is now one principal source of knowledge: Google, an omnipresent, omniscient (some might say) company embedded in the social justice warrior ideology. Just a handful of Californian companies control our digital lives. These companies and ...

    In 2015, the magnitude of the migration crisis was such that the future of Sweden, the country that had welcomed more migrants than any other country (on a per capita basis) and that is frequently described by the UN as the ‘best country to live in in the world’, looked less than certain. Its neighbour, Norway, began preparing for its collapse. And yet, the majority of Swedes a...
