On May 17th 2014, in the framework of the project ‘Exercises in Walking and Talk-ing’, a version of the exercise was performed with a group of 12 participants. Star-
ing from the from Gennadius Library , we walked for 10 km to the sea (Faliro). The conceptual framework of the exercise was based in two key points:
a) ‘Everything is in everything’. One can discover the meaning of the whole world starting from a stone; imagine what we can discover from a walk in the city.
b) The repetitive action of walking and the body’s exhaustion that derives from it, as means for exploring the mystery of presence. Presence to the world, to others and to
yourself.
At the end of our destination, the seaside, we sat down, revisited parts of our frag-mented conversations that happened along the way, and kept the following notes.
