Babel pulsating in a syncopated New York rhythm. The common theme to every language uttered in New York from Spanish to Arabic, Hebrew and Chinese, is pace: quick, staccato, “I have things to do, get outta my way” – pace. Our diversity in babel becomes a common thread that binds us all to this city.
