Walking Piece Marŝarto23

Standing on a spot of a limitless landscape - out of homes, away from workspaces - the bodies become vehicles. The senses become compasses to navigate in this natural world made of concrete and soil. The trees are close enough to reach.

Soundwalk 9:09

The Met

Soundwalk 9:09 takes its title from the time it takes to walk between The Met Fifth Avenue and The Met Breuer: nine minutes and nine seconds.

Walking Piece SWS22
South of Shoreham Port

Beyond the lorries thundering past, the cries of seagulls and roar of waves there are other sounds. This walk presents a small fraction of a larger collection of real and imagined (phantom) sounds recorded in the area around Shoreham Port.

The ground we walk on, the plants and creatures, the clouds above constantly dissolving into new formations - each gift of nature possessing its own radiant energy, bound together by cosmic harmony.

Where Walking Leads

3 Apr, 2024

Like most people on this planet, I have been walking my entire life. Having grown up in Los Angeles, I’ve also logged plenty of time in automobiles, but I’ve been in fortunate to live most of my adult life in a famously “walkable city,” Philadelphia, where my feet have become my preferred routine means of getting around, for both utility and pleasure.
