" Viajei por mais terras do que aquelas em que toquei..." (I travelled for more lands than those where I touched)
"In order to do these illustrations I inspired myself by this sentence. The book's name is "What are literary weblogs?", so I thought it was essential to include the work of one of the greatest Portuguese poets of the 20th century - Fernando Pessoa. I made some research and I found a poem "Passagem das horas" (The Passage of Time) written by Álvaro de Campos, one of Pessoa's pen-names. Álvaro de Campos is known for his futuristic ideas. In this poem I found an excellent sentence, that can describe, what happens to us while we are surfing the net - " Viajei por mais terras do que aquelas em que toquei...". I used the sentence as a central element and the letters are characters written by the computer's mouse."
