I don't want to regiment this project to the extent of its predecessor. This investigation into observation and documentation should focus on those things without being bogged down by the details of how I reach the places I end up in. However I should develop some rules to ensure a common structure to the journeys I make.
I was listening to Nick Drake's Three Hours, a song about escape and the eternal seeker. I thought how far one could travel in three hours, then decided this could be the guiding principle to this project.
Electing at random a number of different starting points, I will travel away from each one for three hours. I'll employ similar but less stringent practices to decide how to move away from those places, to maintain the element of 'the unknown', but essentially the concern in each case will be observation.
Three hours is needed
To leave from them all
Three hours to wonder
And three hours to fall.
Next step: select the random starting points
Following this: get moving.
