"Walking through a city finding words of the streets, buildings, glass and concrete. Considering the Futurists celebration of the city's energy, and the Situationist's desire to walk without a destination, following instead what catches your interest. And to speak the words of a city aloud during the rhythm and pulse of repetitive music. "
