Walking: a research method in art and design published by KABK Lectorate Design.

The Rhytm of walking generates a kind of rhytmn of thinking, and the passage through a landscape echoes or stimulates the passage through a series. This creates an odd consonance between internal and extrnal 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.

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. interview by Higgins, Charlotte. The Guardian, June 15, 2012

After the rains, the air smells fresh with ozone sap, and leaf litter, and my senses are alive with curiosity.
'Sit as little a s possible: do not believe any idea that was not born in the open air and of free movement - in which muscles do not also revel'.
Walking at ones own pace creates an unadulterated feedback loop between the rhythm of [one's] body and [one's] mental state“; in other words, it allows creativity to flow. Ferris Jabr from his article “Why walking Helps us Think” for the New Yorker, September 3, 2014
By walking barefoot we can start to feel our environment again. Louisse Spisser

You're walking and you don't always realize it, but you're always falling. With each step up,you fall forward slightly and then catch yourself from falling. Over and over your falling and then catching yourself from falling and this how you can be walking and falling at the same time. Laurie Anderson - Gravity's Angel, inspired by the book Gravity's Rainbow by Thomas Pinchon.
Sometimes you are not even aware that you are listening, but moving along with your tempo. Laurie Anderson. Northon lectures #02.
