2 Brothers Set New Record For Walking Longest Highline In Yosemite : NPR

Suspend your belief! Moises Monterrubio, 26, and Daniel Monterrubio, 23, led friends and collaborators who spent six days stringing the line across the complex terrain below, which involved rappelling from cliffs and hanging 1,000 feet in the air. “The dangerous part was actually getting the line across, not walking the line itself,” Source: 2 Brothers

hybrid flaneur/flaneuse

Hybrid flaneur/flaneuse has become a performative “orchestrator” of steps and technologies – of sensory and emotional encounters. It is this oscillation between the poetic, the socio-technological, the geographical and the emotional that shifts the meaning of flanerie and walking in the 21st century. Hybrid flaneur/flaneuse can be also described in line with the cultural and aesthetic trajectories of the 20th century ambulatory practices. Therefore, a hybrid flaneur/flaneuse could be a creative merging of the romanticised view of early flaneur, the radical tactics and political implications of psychogeography and the performative/site-oriented elements of Fluxus and Land Art – all considered through a wide range of embodied media, social and geographical sensitivities.
