“Kowalska sees these ‘counter-sites’ as versions, however imperfect, of a utopian ideal in which heterogeneity is valued. “They are by nature non-hegemonic, and in the modern context are often the spaces of subculture or deviance; in literature, they are often the setting if not the subject of transgressive fiction. In the work of the Beat Generation writers, scenes such as nocturnal Times Square, the transient lives of migrant worker communities, port and border cities, or downtown rooming houses, can be understood as heterotopias in terms of their liminality, their difference from conformist society, and the sometimes idealised potential for freedom, expression, and experience they are portrayed as holding.”

When they’re not on location, filmmakers Adrian Bailey and Robyn Keene-Young live in Limpopo Province, #SouthAfrica, a region of expansive sub-tropical woodland areas teeming with wildlife. And they don’t live alone; they have upstairs neighbors—a family of small, #nocturnal, #arboreal #primates called #galagos
