I was meant to type this up a week ago, but me being me I forgot.
The idea of psycho geography used to confuse me, to be honest I didn't really get it. After having to make multiple journeys without my ipod I realised what it means, I think. The task of making a trip is optional, you chose to go somewhere. However only some of those trips are journeys. I think that journeys are a trip where you learn something. Whether it's about yourself or something else. The art of wandering is also linked to psycho geography. where you don't have a specific route but you still are on a journey. Technically life is psycho geography as you are constantly on a journey. I like the idea of drawing lines or words on a map and following the lines. To link both those ideas of following a route and life they could work together but at the same time also contradict Some people follow a path in life and have a clear vision of where they're going. However many people live for the moment and don't follow a path or have a direction they want to go in. This could highlight the idea of life being art. In terms of my own bath and life psycho geography I don't know where I'm going, hence in this project I am following the theme of being lost. Or trying to. I like the idea of getting lost and trying to find my way back/ This links to my life in terms of the fact that I don't know where I'm going but I trying to figure it out. I am currently in the process of making a path to get me back on track.
