‘Standing, for the second time in my life, on the platform of Edale train station in the heart of the Peak District, I hoped that walking all the way to Scotland might make me a Walking Artist. This was me, leaning into my fear that one day I might run out of ideas. If only I had been able to identify my working methods, maybe it would not have come to this.’

If one travels on foot there are times that one will stumble. Not just physically but also accidental upon things, events or ideas that otherwise would not have occurred without walking.

They will listen to the same sound objects installation and they will understand if their “personal sound moment” has changed. The audience will pick (maybe) another sound card and will remember their “old” sound moment. The main purpose of it is to fix the present and to learn its development.
