分身
Instruction
現在あなたが使用している歯ブラシと歯磨き粉とあなたのパスポートの表紙と情報のページのコピーをください。方法はテサロニキで入れられた袋を参考にしてください。袋が２つあるのでその各々に日付と港の名前を書いてください。
*もしあなたの個人情報を渡すことに支障があれば、その部分を黒く塗りつぶして結構です。
これは私たちの分身に仲間を増やしながら旅をさせるプロジェクトです。
歯ブラシと歯磨き粉とパスポートは私たちが旅をしようとするときにまず持っていく物として頭に浮かべやすいものです。
歯ブラシはとてもプライベートな物で、普通は他の人と共有しません。それは安いものですが、私たちの一部のように扱われます。
歯磨き粉は歯ブラシとは少し違い、時には親しい人たちと共有されます。歯磨き粉にはとても小さな社会性があります。
もし私たちがパスポートを持っていなければ国境を越えることはできません。国籍を持っていない場合、もちろんパスポートが無いので、国に属していないにもかかわらず国境をこえることは出来ず、今居る場所に留まることになります。パスポートは本人よりも信頼できると考えられているようです。
これら３点セットを私たちの分身と呼んでみます。私は私の分身を旅に送り出し、それはまだ見ぬ私の分身の友人となる分身と出会うでしょう。分身の友人たちは港毎に増えていきます。本体である私たちは会うことはありませんが、旅の途中で多くの目撃者を得ることができます。

Doubles - A collaboration project in THE BOX
Instruction
Please give the toothbrush and the toothpaste that you are using and make a copy of the information page of your passport and its cover.
Put all these things in the plastic bags that you will find in the box. (Look at the first Thessaloniki set how to do this).
Write the name of your city and the date on the labels of the two bags.
*If you don't like to show your private information on your passport, for example, name, date of birth, etc., you can black out the section concerning this information as you wish.
This project will make our doubles to travel together while at every next port the double of another new friend will be added.
Thooth brush,toothpaste and the copy of a passport are being used for this project, as these things come readily to mind when we think about going on a journey.
A thoothbrush is a very private thing that we use everyday. Usually we don't share it with anyone. It seems to be a part of ourself.
Toothpaste is something different from a toothbrash. Although it is used with a toothbrash, we sometimes share it with our company. We can say that toothpaste is something which can be shared at very basic moments in our life.
A thoothbrush and toothpaste are used at the sametime, but they differ in charactor from each other.
If we don't have a passport, we can't cross the border. If we will be a stateless person, we can't cross the border, and we have to keep staying in the land where we stay now. It is very strange that a stateless person can not cross the border. For crossing the border, it looks like a passport is more important than a person.
I could say that all in all these three things are like our doubles. I'm going to send my double on a journey. It will meet new friends whom I don't know. My double and my new friend's double will proceed on a journey. Our double's company is going to increase during the journey. Although we don't meet each other in person and our doubles are just information, we will have many witness for the journey of our doubles and they will be able to provide messages independently from us.
