LTAW #24 at Zuccotti Park, Wall street

2011-11-07T12:11:00.000-08:00

It's fascinating to walk through Zuccotti Park into this com-munity of diverse people who peacefully demand social and economic equality.

Little by little the park is transformed into a village of a sort, there is even a library. The place is now cramped with tents. Because of the sky scrapers surrounding the park there is very little sun.
I hope for the safety of the protesters.
As I was getting ready to start the walk a group of people gathered to participate in a workshop on Radical Economics 101

The walk ended with a wonderful encounter with the knitting grandmother

What about you, where did you take the walk from? if you have any footage please send them, to me via You sent it (at no cost to you).

Thank you so much for your support and participation.

the 22nd walk took place in the jungle

2011-09-05T18:00:00.000-07:00

Our trip in Belize was fantastic, so good to be exploring wondrous places in the world. LTAW #22 took place in mid air as Taliana and I were rappelling over the caves and cliffs of the aptly named "The Black Hole"

Departure point,Saturday August 20th 11am Belize

The highlight of this experience was to look up and see Taliana who took the guide's challenge and "glided" down head first, with drops of rains falling around her... a moment not captured on film but embedded in my memory.

Thank you so much to all of you who took a picture at this moment. Please send your image to mariechristine@mindspring.com

Une petite escapade...

2011-05-20T16:47:00.000-07:00

I had to escape and I did... I left my pillows, my kids, my dogs and my home for four days in New Orleans. I am so happy that I might orchestrate a Walk. This is very last minute but I'll keep you informed. Right now I am off to explore the French Quarter.

Spinning my web

2011-05-18T18:45:00.000-07:00

I wish I was inviting you for A Walk but instead, the terrifying emergence of my inner hausfrau, is seriously clashing with my goddess of love and the arts. She has been so busy pulling me into the meander of housekeeping, keeping me home sewing pillows… If only I could take it to the place of Spinning my web instead I am falling into the trap of Domesticity, next mummy dearest...

Let's take a walk #16 took place in what seems to be ages ago. I recall the fun of The Three Kings parade.
What surprise, what a pleasure to see my friend Christo just as I was ending the walk.
We kept following the parade together.
My friend went back to Switzerland, leaving behind her some great memories and an amazingly delicious home made Walnut Tart.
For those of you lucky enough to live in Zurich, Christo sells them in the market... Worth looking for.
I might conduct next walk from Indianapolis Looking forward to the next time. Bise mc

LTAW #9 featured a new addition to the work, inviting not only participants via Twitter, but also participants gathered from visitors to the Figment Art Festival on Governor’s Island (2010) to walk alongside me during the performance. It also introduced a town crier and drummer that helped lead the procession. I also wore a knitted overskirt that unraveled with each step, leaving a physical trace of our path.

I am thankful...
For your participation and support. Saturday 11/27 at 11 am EST I will start sending you messages via Twitter guiding you
to follow my walk from anywhere in the world, please film or photograph your journey. I will later assemble all the various footage
to create a visual journal of our combined walks.

For the first time, in all those years living in New York City I went to the Macy Thanksgiving Parade. 72nd street was way too crowded so I zoomed down to 59 street an found a wonderful spot to enjoy the experience.
I wish I had conducted LTAW #15 at that moment, how great it would have been to include thankfulness in such a visible way into LTAW. However no matter where the walk will take place I want to thank you for all your continuous support.
I hope that you can participate in LTAW #15.

LTAW #14 at the Rally to Restore Sanity

2010-10-31T07:50:00.000-07:00

What a fun experience, as one of my travel companion said "it was all very sane" including the driving to Washington and back to New York on the same day.
The insane element was that there was no internet connections whatsoever, we could not even use our cell phones. I was there and ready to conduct LTAW #14 and could not connect with you.
My deepest apologies to those of you who where waiting in vain.
In my quest for connection I entered the National Gallery of Art hoping for an internet access but no luck... In the process missing one of my favorite singer Cat Steven/ Yusuf Islam, his first word was Peace before he started to sing The Peace Train.

Remember, Let's vote on Tuesday,
Let's not have leave it to -> -> ->

Let's take a walk #14

2010-10-27T09:08:00.000-07:00

A commitment to do our part?
Join me in Washington Saturday 10/30 , take a walk, be connected to the Rally by following me on Twitter Saturday 10/30 @ 1pm EST

2010-10-26T18:58:00.000-07:00

But enough with school and children... Let's take a walk will take place Saturday the 30th as part of the Rally to Restore Sanity For those of you who are too far to go to Washington (or sensible enough not to go) you can be part of the walk from anywhere in the world by following my directions on Twitter at 1pm EST 10/30 remember to bring your camera/video.
You'll film your journey, I'll film mine. The combined footage will featured in LTAW video #14.
Now the big question is why are we going to Washington? Is it going to raise awareness? Can it be an incentive to get out and vote next week? a sideway step toward peace? Let's see and find out...

Survey's result

2010-10-26T18:15:00.000-07:00

Thank you for your feedback and replies to the survey, please see Saturday October 16th entry.
Most of you blamed my inability to conduct a walk this month on the children starting a new school;
some thought the change of season was a strong factor.
Someone wondered if I was incarnating a Queen in the performance / video of LTAW #9, I think it was more a personification of a Disoriented Pilgrim... As for the reason why i did
not do a walk, it very much due to the sheer exhaustion of sending my children to new schools. Tonight I was asked by one of my children if it was hard to be a parent... No comment.

Next Walk Saturday October 30 at 1pm EST

2010-10-23T16:26:00.000-07:00

Nothing like a walk on the beach to give me back the energy and focus
I needed for the Let's take a walk #14 It will happen Saturday Oct 30th 1pm EST
Hopefully you will join me.
You can participate from anywhere in the world.
Follow my directions on twitter http://twitter.com/mcayer
Film your journey, I'll film mine. The combined footage will be the base of
the Let's take a walk #14 video.

Not happening yet...

2010-10-16T14:35:00.000-07:00

Blame it on:

The change of seasons
The children entering new schools
Procrastination
Exhaustion
Lack of direction/ destination
Inability to solidify LTAW true purpose yet
All of the above
Don't care

Let's take a walk #13 took place in Lower Manhattan.

After studying a google map I selected 4 Places of worship

that were in the proximity of Ground Zero. A Church, a Chapel

a Synagogue and the river. The walk started at 51 Park Place

the site of proposed Mosque.

Following the map drawn on my arm... (How could have I film the journey, send tweets, walk past the swarm of tourists and avoid

the potholes)

The walk took 40 minutes ... the most beautiful moment for

me was to arrive to the river, Breath Aaaaahhhh...

Did you join me?

Peace starts small and spreads out…

Second for a while now I have incorporated an element of Peace
Did you invite a friend, a lover, an enemy, a stranger?
The Peace March, Imagine/Strawberry Field. (see walk #2 and 4)
Due to the events regarding the building of a Mosque near Ground Zero the Walk will take place near and around various places of worship in the area near the site of the Mosque.
I will also ask the 3 most important people in my life to join me in conducting the walk.
Peace starts small and spreads out…
Of course I hope that you also will join me in that walk, either in person or from anywhere in the world.

Let’s Take a Walk 

Interactive Performance/Installation  

Let’s Take a Walk uses the phenomenon of Twitter so that people all over the world can join in a “group walk.”  On scheduled times, participants (located in various locations throughout the world) would receive “tweet” messages, providing a series  of walking/viewing directions to follow my path through a specific site. Requesting that they film their journey, the various footage are then  assembled into a video installation showing the experience of our group walking in different places but moving synchronized through the same footprints... recreating the blueprint of the landmark/institution I am walking on in that particular day.

So far, the project has included journeys I’ve guided in Strawberry Field, through the crowded streets of the New York City Marathon, Union Sq market during the holidays’ season and on Martin Luther King weekend I followed the route of the 1967 Peace March from Central Park to the United Nation and to mark the opening of the exhibition of Marina Abramović The artist is present Let's take a walk #6 took place around and in MOMA.

Exploring ideas of isolation and community, (calling to mind both

guided tour groups and flaneur wanderings), I’m also interested in conducting the walks as performances within the museum and other art/cultural public spaces to create a new context.

I hope that you will join me for the next walk.

I am receiving wonderful images and videos from everyone who participated in LTAW on Governors Island.
Looking forward to edit this walk's video.
The performance took some unexpected turns, and as in life, sometimes we wish we had sized the opportunities given to us at that moment and made stronger choices, however the experience has clarified some of the elements of the work. I am looking forward for the opportunity of doing Let's take a walk as a performance again.
With gratitude marie christine

Let’s Take a Walk 

Interactive Performance/Installation  

So far, the project has included journeys I’ve guided in Strawberry Field, through the crowded streets of the New York City Marathon, Union Sq market during the holidays’ season and on Martin Luther King weekend I followed the route of the 1967 Peace March from Central Park to the United Nation. Walk #5 was conducted from Stowe VT and to mark the opening of the exhibition of Marina Abramović The artist is present Let's take a walk #6 took place around and in MOMA.

Exploring ideas of isolation and community,(calling to mind both

guided tour groups and flaneur wanderings), I’m also interested in conducting the walks as performances within the museum and other art/cultural public spaces to create a new context.

I hope that you will join me for the next walk.
