Wandering breaks the spells cast by consumer society.
It shows us what we don’t know we don’t know, it makes us healthier, happier, luckier, wiser, kinder, and more resilient.
In this street lab, we’ll look at the practices of great wanderers like Walt Whitman, William S. Burroughs, and Guy Debord. We’ll also play some simple games to strengthen your own wandering.
I observe 3 ‘rules’, which we’ll explore in detail:
1. Frequent, frivolous decisions
2. Variable intensity
3. Subtle input
I’m a licensed NYC guide from Alaska. Over the past 25+ years, I’ve wandered in all 50 states and dozens of countries. I lead food & history tours and wanders across Manhattan.
Whether you’re a dedicated flâneur or just love walking in New York, this workshop will enrich your exploration of the city and the planet.
