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.

*Richard Long: At the age of 22 Long made a work that would prove to be exemplary for his entire oeuvre: A Line Made by Walking (1967), an icon of Land Art. The actual artwork was the action itself and its result in the landscape. For this he walked a true line back and forth across a field of grass, until a path of flattened grass appeared. he took a picture of this in black and white.

The photograph itself is the least important part of this work. it was necessary in order to record the temporary outcome of Long's action and make it visible to a large audience. the actual work of art was the action itself and its result in the landscape itself. The actual artwork was the action itself and its result in the landscape.
