Walking into the light of the labyrinth

In the night of the new moon, we walk from the dark into the morning blue. There is no direction, only the first sunlight can guide us. Children stories are the red thread in this labyrinthine quest.

Walking in LifePlace

The paper presents three walking narrative activations in Durban: Ways of Seeing, a student-led sensory and photojournalistic exploration of multicultural neighborhoods; KulturKonneKt, tours connecting citizens with the city’s social heritage and cultural diversity; and The Labyrinth, guided sensory walks for creatives culminating in a community-built labyrinth that links local and global experiences. These projects emphasize observational skills, social cohesion, cultural understanding, and multisensory engagement with urban spaces.

pedestrian acts

By de Certeau: In “Walking in the City”, de Certeau conceives pedestrianism as a practice that is performed in the public space, whose architecture and behavioural habits substantially determine the way we walk. For de Certeau, the spatial order “organises an ensemble of possibilities (e.g. by a place in which one can move) and interdictions (e.g. by a wall that prevents one from going further)” and the walker “actualises some of these possibilities” by performing within its rules and limitations. “In that way,” says de Certeau, “he makes them exist as well as emerge.” Thus, pedestrians, as they walk conforming to the possibilities that are brought about by the spatial order of the city, constantly repeat and re-produce that spatial order, in a way ensuring its continuity. But, a pedestrian could also invent other possibilities. According to de Certeau, “the crossing, drifting away, or improvisation of walking privilege, transform or abandon spatial elements.” Hence, the pedestrians could, to a certain extent, elude the discipline of the spatial order of the city. Instead of repeating and re-producing the possibilities that are allowed, they can deviate, digress, drift away, depart, contravene, disrupt, subvert, or resist them. These acts, as he calls them, are pedestrian acts.
