The Blackboard invites to write words, called by surofona the geolectos. This words shows how the language is a permeable action, defined by local relations; ground, food, myths and cultural images, building a blurred zone which stand differences and distances for a double way communication. In this zone appear new bridges to understand and to project the nature of the language.
Finally the proposal of Surófona for the ISEA 2017 is celebrate the difference and encounters in the basics of the communication, to point an area to show us through the spoken language, the hand writing and local materials, where the sound is explored in many ways to discover the usual and unusual points of agreements and the statements.
