The Line Takes Time
Overview
The Line Takes Time investigates Weimar through walking, duration, and line. It explores how a line is produced not only by movement through space, but also by the time spent in certain places.
The project begins with the question: How does a walking body produce different lines of duration across different spatial conditions? In a small and accessible city like Weimar, time is not only about travel distance, but also about where one chooses to stay, slow down, or pass through.
Method
The project uses walking as a method of artistic research. Walks across different areas, passages, and thresholds in Weimar are recorded through GPS. The collected data includes position, speed, rhythm, and time spent.
Line Notation
The GPS trace is not used as a conventional map. Instead, it is translated into a line-based notation:
- passing through becomes a thin line
- slowing down becomes a heavier line
- staying becomes density
- repeated presence becomes accumulation
- thresholds create changes in the behavior of the line
[Possible] Output
The project may result in a series of walking plots, drawings, video plots, or a line-based installation. These outputs translate walking data into visual patterns of movement, duration, staying, and spatial relation.
