How come I never heard of this before? Suddenly, last week, there was a post on EnergyBulletin about Will Self and Ralph Steadman’s eponymous book, about flaneur-ing around a city recording whatever- emotion, memory, history, architecture, geography. So I started reading Psychogeography, where Self records Self’s walk from London to Manhattan by way of Heathrow and JFK.

This is precisely the sort of work that ought to be done in Bull’s Head Neighborhood (BHN) before they raze it and put up Low Income Housing (LIH) prettified by Urban Community Gardens (UCGs). Are the kids in BHN on Twitter? It’s reading the landscape, a la Permaculture, and another way of recording, collecting, observing. Off to do more research.
