"It appears that in recent years the walk has become a widespread practice of knowledge capable of guiding more and more different fields. A practice of knowledge outside the art world, a kind common zero grade geographers, architects, landscape architects, anthropologists, sociologists, choreographers, photographers, musicians, administrators, and political activists. Regarding the actions of the vanguard of the twenties and the seventies, now not walk more self-demonstrative way, to assert that walking is an art, this is already being widely recognized for the art system not only to report walking more experience in museums in the form of work or documentation of the file, you walk to enforce the experience to others . Who walks today it becomes increasingly alone and increasingly with others, to share with others, to find others.
So why this desire to explore the city and explore it? Guy Debord advised "to form many groups of two or three people together in one consciousness and the confrontation between these different views of these groups should be allowed to reach objective conclusions." Leaving aside the possibility or not, to reach objective conclusions
, I think Debord gives here a first major response: the formation of one or more groups can effectively blend the experiences and provide a shared and multiple representation. Along the way there are significant internal relations and fundamental fact, multiply the relations with the external. Multiply feet, eyes and ears, then the desires, deviations, meetings. In two words, multiply the interactions with the territory.
Now, walking with other people can overcome the fear and into more and more dark areas unexplored. The fear to learn, in the sense of increasing the self-consciousness and apprehension have an instinct that arouses fear in the comparisons of space and that drives you to quickly find a free moment on the network, an escape route, a response. It seems, increasingly, that to know the territory you need to go "wherever there is fear but where it also saves you," as Holderlin.
And there is a case then, that the places where they happen most of these hikes are on-off areas not frequented abandoned. Just drop one of the most popular subject, because it can reveal, for those who can read, the city's unconscious, unresolved problems, their skeletons in the closet. "
