Hello!

I would love to invite your participation in an experiment as we navigate through a walk together.
I'm currently experimenting with formats in how to collectively share a walk,
and it is still research that is evolving. 

Participation would include a walk in an environment of your choosing.
I will also be walking outside and in nature.

During our walk together, starting, stopping, navigating the needs of your environment are at your discretion, pace and desire.
Freedom of engaging physically is determined by your choices, preferences, available options, and handicaps.

Please keep in mind clothing and footwear choices for your desired location, level of physical engagement, weather, and health priorities,
while also observing current Covid-19 guidelines for your location.

"Walking as striking a delicate balance between being and doing…working and idling… bodily labor
that produces nothing but thoughts, experiences, arrivals.” Thoreau



Here is a suggested timeline:

 10:00 AM  - 10:20ish AM  (EST) ~ Walk
You can choose to walk at any time according to your needs and schedule.
This is a suggestion to share in a physical walking form, without zoom, as a long-distance collective movement imagining. 

10:25 AM - 10:45 AM (EST) ~ Zoom
Share together on zoom.

Meeting ID: 222 492 2704



While on our walk:

Please take a photo and/or video to be potentially shared.

Please collect one item also to be shared.

At the 'end' of our walk we will share and gather together on zoom. We will have a writing prompt, and potential sharing
of our photography/videography/collected object. Lastly, we will all share our collected object through creating together.



Both Means and End

Both Travel and Destination

I greatly look forward to sharing a walk together.


Carolyn
