In this notebook, artist Ana Prvacki and scholar Irina Aristarkhova discuss the concept of the greeting and the gestures and ethics of hospitality. Prvacki's personal considerations of etiquette encompass the faux pas of Borat, the Singapore Kindness Movement and the Obamas; Aristarkhova traces a theoretical lineage of the history and ethics of hospitality, from Immanuel Kant and his concept of "civility" to luminaries such as Gandhi, Mother Theresa and Martin Luther King.
