alexander platz
i was for 24h in berlin, passing by, doing a blitzbesuch to the big german capital. and on my way from the hauptbahnhof where i left my lugguage to presnzlauerberg, i had to change at alexanderplatz. i went out of the subway and was standing in the rain on that big square where thousand and thousand of people pass by everyday and i was watching them circulate…
i observed their pass way. the square is quite big, there is a big shoping mal nex to the station, the fernsehturm next to it, a fountain in the middel, some little shops, some snack bars…
we move in the structure that are given from ,one place to the other. always in the most direct way?

We often walk straight, in “automatic drive”.
It is very rare the people thinking about the fact they are walking, most people are just passenger of their bodies, travelling from point A to B; most of the time you are looking at human automatons.
If you start thinking about “walking”, you may start to walk differently, and people can feel it, it is acting. I like the idea that the slightest change in ones mind can be physically felt by others. This happen especially when you are walking near and in the almost same direction as someone. I really dont like when someone is walking a bit faster than me takes ages to pass me; I tend to slow down to let them pass, I hate the feeling of being followed. I end up walking faster and faster to be never passed. It is ridiculous.
I am an automaton too, by the way.
yes, that’s what i mean by we walk in the given structures. the reason why you might walke this way, is that you need to get from the shop to the subway station and because there is a direct street build from a to b, you’ll take that one. so we are servant of the given structure and the purpose. it would be funny if someone would walk from the shop to the subway station three times around yourself, than crossing to the other street side, than lying down and at the end walking backward to the station. well either you are making an art project or you are very confused or you are a tourist (hahaha).
about walking versus acting, i don’t think it is acting. i think it is a different level of consciousness that can be perceived as acting.
