Publisher Note

Between philosophical essay and poetic experimentation, this text by the Chilean philosopher and artist pays tribute to Fernand Deligny, whose work on autism has allowed a more experimental understanding of difference.

Wandering Echoes veers between philosophical thought and poetic experimentation, asking for a reading by way of multiple and meandering lines. Underpinning the book is a profound engagement with Fernand Deligny, whose work with autistic children in the 1960s and 70s posed a more experimental understanding of the diversely abled. Wandering Echoes is a work under the influence of Deligny, amplifying his gestural philosophy through lines of thought whose echoes and vibrations lead into a labyrinthine text of personal experience, soft moments and deep restlessness. Subtle and demanding, the book is ultimately an act of poetic-doing which, for the author, enables emergent forms of solidarity.
