"Cute little run around"
The last photograph and this photograph were taken when i was exploring what psychogeography is. It is important to have an understanding of the city, which in my case was Preston as it is a complex area. I went out walking round Preston to see if i could see anything that caught my eye. Psychogeography can create an alternative way of seeing and thinking about senses, these ideas can be used to help when taking photographs.
When out on the streets i used the method of not taking photographs of the usual.
We watched a documentary called "The London Perambulator"which looks at the city we deny and the future city that awaits us.
I made some notes throughout the video of what kind of things they explored when observing the street:
- Weather
- Environment
- Shops (who use them)
- Buildings
- Cafe's
- Rhythm, pace, movement
- Cars
