Or, think about places that have been or will be important to others; a city-state in revolt; an ant colony; a generation ship 400 centuries into its voyage towards another star. The story we are building is about this place, this field, this star, this city, this tree, this crossroads. Remember that places have memory— that what has happened here is always, in some small or big way, written into the walls, the stones, or the future of the people who continue to live here. Fundamentally, The Ground Itself is about the echoes and traces we leave for others after we are gone.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"mysite","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54403788079397,"sku":"EP-TGI-ZINE","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/0302\/1093\/files\/preordernotifyoverlay_22_2.jpg?v=1793961361","url":"https:\/\/tiananycolefunyllc.store\/products\/the-ground-itself","provider":"TIANANYCOLEFUNYLLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
