As an attempt at ‘performing landscape’ by moving through it, I have made some experiments with walking, using a small action camera on my forehead, in contrast to my usual practice of performing for a static camera on tripod. In this video essay I will demonstrate with brief video clips and a voice-over narration the development of a practice, where I insert a walk in one direction into a walk in the other direction. Reflecting on such walking as an embodied exploration of the environment, I propose to consider what purposes it might be used for. Although these experiments were made as sketches for artworks, most of them remain just that, sketches or drafts, experiments in recorded walking
