When the pandemic began, I began finding it difficult to finish books. I would start reading something and then get distracted and put it aside. I just didn’t have the concentration to read anything longer than an article in The Guardian or The New Yorker. It was surprising, and worrying, and I suddenly found myself wondering if […]

I did it! I walked a circle around the surface of a square km, just because it sounds great: the Perimeter of a Round-Square-Kilometer The post The Circumference of a Round-Square-Kilometer appeared first on base80 :-).

Yep we just had to do this, it has been done before, it will be done again, but as a walking artist I really had to do one! Or two. Stang and I went to the the Dunes of Drunen and walked one of his figures, check out his site for more… And as we....

 In May I should have been walking with co-artist Lorna Brunstein developing a programme of work for installation at the Lake District Holocaust Project. Sara's Last Steps would have taken place during a weekend of events commemorating the arrival of a group of Jewish child refugees to a location near Windermere in 1945. The weekend included a planned reunion of those still living  and able to travel plus their families and descendants. Sadly the virus has put paid to that and the proj [...]

Walking the same routes again and again means we're noticing things for the first time and figuring out new routes to perambulate along. So we've started mapping things-of-note.

This sound trip by David Helbich sends you into the urban wilderness of Hasselt (Belgium) with open headphones, a mp3-player, a map and a drum stick.

It’s a cool Sunday afternoon. I smell woodsmoke as I begin my walk. A family riding their bicycles on the sidewalk forces me into the street. I stop to admire tulips in bloom beside a mailbox. The same gardener has placed red flowers in an old, broken wheelbarrow. I wonder if they are impatiens—Christine has […]

Ein Querschnitt ortsspezifischer Hörspaziergänge Verborgenes lauert in unseren Städten. Vergangene Epochen zeigen ihre Spuren. Gebäude, Straßen und Plätze haben ihre Geschichten. Besitz- und Aneignungskämpfe, Gentrifizierung, aber auch utopisches Potential schlummern in den Stadtlandschaften. Und audio walks legen manches davon frei.
