52 More: Blog

After I finished 52 Scores (2019-2020) I was left with a pile of off-cuttings. Words I considered, but didn’t use. For 52 More I’m inviting people to use them to make their own walking scores.

If you’d like to make a score, e-mail your postal address to blakemwalks@gmail and you will recieve a kit in the mail.* Each score takes one week to build (around five to ten minutes a day). Once you’ve made the score we can choose a time to walk it together (and invite others to join us if we so desire).
 
You can also join in the walks as the scores are made (check out the upcoming walks page.) To participate in a walk, read the score and decide how you interpet it as instructions for a walk. For instance, you might follow the words as a map, or use specific sentences as provocations for your exploration. You can do the walks anywhere in the world in whatever environment suits them best.

If you have questions or want to arrange a specific walking exchange, e-mail blakemwalks@gmail.com. You can also share you walks via social media using the hashtag#52More.

I will be sharing the scores and documenting the walking exchanges on the project blog. Feel free to participate in previous walks as well. If you share your documentation with me I will add it to the blog.

The project is ongoing until 52 scores have been created and walked into existence.
