From the unearthed spaces that contain the fragmented remains of the past, through the social universes of other worlds, a solitary anthropologist is immersed in archaeological mysteries. These are found in a series of ruined landscapes of memory. This is the journey of an actor, quite human in his responses, that crosses spaces and through time to enact different characterizations and immersions. These acts create a stage that becomes his "haunted theatre." The face in the mirror is but one mask that is worn in this journey through the realms of fact, imagination, exploration, and excavation. The path leads forward and backward in an unfolding timeline. The study where he writes is a place that does not always find science or reason in the usual sense. The result is a journey of one individual's measurement of a life in a landscape of "ruins"
