Home?

How many times have you moved house in the past few years?

In the Poetics of Space, Gaston Bachelard noted that "The cheif benefit of the house (is that) the house shelters daydreaming, the house protects the dreamer, the house allows one to dream in peace."

What are the psychological consequences when your physical environment is in constant flux? How do you rebuild your home and your community with every move?
