Development from what I have learned from my café in May 2021, about a link I am establishing in a Memorial to Mum on a Gate (part of the fence in the direction she used to gaze through the night for spiritual contact) and my early morning walks.

Armenia’s fading tightrope walking tradition survives through family lines – CIVILNET

By Stela Asryan, a journalism student at Yerevan Brusov State University When Mamikon steps onto the rope, he says he first prays. Only after a brief pause does he begin to move forward, carefully balancing each step, keeping his body steady and his focus fixed ahead. For him, tightrope walking is not simply a performance.

An immersive six-episode podcast combining personal essay with soundwalks and interviews that explores the intersection of walking and spirituality. Created as a podcaster in residence with Grace Cathedral in San Francisco, California.

A six-episode podcast exploring the intersection of walking and spirituality created as a podcaster in residence with Grace Cathedral in San Francisco, California. The series is an immersive sonic journey, combining personal essay with soundwalks and interviews with walking artists, writers, and scientists, including the poet Gary Snyder, San Francisco author and historian Gary Kamiya, Antonia Malchik, author of “A Walking Life”, among other books, Dartmouth College paleoanthropologist Jerry DeSilva, and Artistic Director of Lines Ballet Alonzo King.

Episodes explore circumambulation (walking in circles as a pilgrimage or spiritual practice), neighborhood walking, tightrope walking, walking and community, the origins of human walking, and walking, stillness and the spaces in between.

Listeners called the first episode, Walking in Circles, “a lovely spoken journey.” One reviewer wrote: “Can walking in circles – around a maze or a mountain – be the key to putting the pieces back together when your world falls apart? This reflective personal journey uses a Bay Area tradition, the circumambulation of Mount Tamalpais, as a meditation on this question, enlightening listeners along the way.”
