The website "Write the Map" is a creative project that explores the intersections of writing and place through the practice of walking. It documents how literary texts and geographic locations influence one another, highlighting the spatial dimensions of narrative and authorship. The site features essays, maps, and visual materials that examine the relationship between landscapes, urban environments, and the act of writing, situating literary production within specific cultural and geographical contexts.
The project also engages with themes of cultural geography by considering how walking serves as both a method of inquiry and a form of artistic expression. It brings attention to how movement through space can shape literary imagination and create new modes of storytelling. Through various contributions and archival materials, "Write the Map" offers insights into how physical journeys and textual narratives reciprocally inform each other, framing walking as a durational and spatially aware creative practice.

Since 2018, the project has involved running these letter-forms, with London hosting approximately 18 foxes per square kilometer, and aims to develop multiple tags during the Soundwalk Sunday festival through performative collaboration.
