Walking between Alterations and hardware store yesterday, the long way.
I was remembering something we’d been told recently at work– that if you walk around the shop and touch everything, you’re more likely to notice if it is out of place or untidy. I spontaneously tested out this relationship between intentionally touching things and becoming more aware of them.
Things I touched:
A knobbly tree trunk
Asphalt
A hairy palm
The metal cage around a tree
A tiled wall
Bumpy yellow rubber
Concrete
A pedestrian crossing button
(a cigarette butt rolls past in the wind)
Over a curb
And yellow lines
A traffic light pole
Red and some beige bricks
2 spiky iron fences
A stone sculpture
3 stakes holding up trees
A street sign
A utility box
An advertising light box
A concrete manhole
A street sign
A parking meter
A utility box
A pole
3 street signs
Blue plastic thing
A parking meter
3 street signs
Bumpy yellow rubber
Over a curb
Following a white line
2 street signs
A sandwich board
Some small square white tiles
(a pigeon)
A parking meter
A short pole
Concrete
A short pole
Over curb
Across yellow line
Asphalt road surface
Zigzag red bricks
A knobbly barked tree
A street sign
(follow another pigeon)
Concrete
Round light in the ground
A witch’s hat
A bike stand
A poster stand
Zebra crossing
A pedestrian crossing button
Yellow bumpy dots
