People who think of the past and the present who think endlessly of what is to come and search for it tirelessly in the present are already living in the future. Those who gaze endlessly upon time and lose themselves in what is to come and search for something in people's faces are already living what they believe is to come through practice. There are times that are lumped together and merge and stretch and lie down and the future is not necessarily what happens next and the past is not necessarily what already happened. —From Future Walking Rehearsals (Munhakdongne, 2021)
Bak Solmay writes about the history and time of things that read and see and walk in the manner of a walker.
