En el último congreso de esta ENN fui yo de conferenciante invitado, cosa poco habitual para mí. Aquí puede oírse mi conferencia, o partes de ella, en la Universidad Internacional de París:

"ENN: The Story behind any Story: Evolution, Historicity, and Narrative Mapping." YouTube (CRAL – Centre de Recherches sur l'Art et le Langage) 5 July 2013.*

A este otro congreso de Gante 2015 no creo que vaya, por falta de posibles (al de París no habría podido ir por mis propios medios). Aunque quién sabe dónde pararemos en 2015, tampoco pensaba volver tan pronto a París, y anteayer estaba por allí viendo Montmartre (...desde muy lejos...) camino de otra universidad internacional, la de Venecia. Cogiendo aviones como un descosido, sur le ciel de Paris, y yéndome por las nubes como si fuese un personaje de Small World. Sin un duro, pero volando de congreso en congreso como si no hubiese un mañana. (Que no lo hay).
