   * The Rhythm of walking generates a kind of rhythm of thinking, and the passage through a landscape echoes or stimulates the passage through a series. This creates an odd consonance between internal and external passage, one that suggests athat the mind is also a landscape of sorts and that walking is one way to traverse it. Rebecca Solnit, Wanderlust: a history of walking.   * The Rhythm of walking generates a kind of rhythm of thinking, and the passage through a landscape echoes or stimulates the passage through a series.

   * she describes walking as a state in which the mind, the body and the world are alingned, as though they were three characters finally in concersation with each other, three notes suddenly make a chord. According to Solnit, the walking agreement not only provides a pleasant or healing feeling, which we all know, but also promotes creativity; during the walk, the passing landscape becomes, as it were, intertwined with your thought world, which also becomes a landscape. The new ideas that gradually emerge feel more familiar than usual. As though thinking were travelling rather than making.   * she describes walking as a state in which the mind, the body and the world are alingned, as though they were three characters finally in concersation with each other, three notes suddenly make a chord.

   * My footsteps make the mark. My legs carry me across the country. It's like a way of measuring the world. I love that connection to my own body. It's to me the world. Richard long.

-  * In the sixties walkingart beacame a genre by itself.  Long bases his work on the human scale. This distinguishes him from American Land Art artists who, in the 1960s and 1970s, created imposing works of art in the open air with bulldozers. The only things that remain are maps, photographs and word pictures, which he calls 'second-hand' by definition.+  * In the sixties walking art beacame a genre by itself.  Long bases his work on the human scale.
