Extract

This article considers the legacies of place revealed by critical walking journeys through the city and the potential for transforming their interpretation through the distribution of new forms of map. As Francesco Careri implies in Walkscapes: Walking as an Aesthetic Practice, walking pre-dates the city and nomadism is the original condition of civilised living. Put simply, settlement is the process of civilisation becoming static.
