This year I spent some time with Sam Pelts become a talking head for my favorite project in all creation! The video was composed by Sam Pelts Project co-ordinator, written by Edwin Dobb, with music composed by Jacob Bloomfield-Misrach and voice-over by Peter Coyote. Please take 9 minutes and look.

Migratory bibliophiles! New patterns are appearing, new roads mapped and traveled (the silk road of books!)
