Walking the Edit @ Brussels is an innovative way to live a new urban experience : Walk your movie!
Put on your earphones, launch the WE application for Brussels and compose your own movie just by walking. Once your urban wandering ended, publish your walk to be able to see the resulting movie on the Walking the Edit website.
It’s great that videos, pictures and other data can be geolocalized thus creating an ‘augmented space’. But we are left to wonder… how can we turn this abundance of information into a story? Can we build a narrative with all this geolocalized information? How can we make a visit to this augmented space a more coherent and enriching experience?
‘Walking the Edit’ enables you to ‘walk a movie’ based on the shared audiovisual pieces that are virtually existing around us.
You just walk through a neighborhood (in Brussels in this case) and our iPhone app tracks your progress and translates your itinerary into a story drawing from the multitude of virtual information held in the ‘augmented space’. All this in realtime!
The adaptation of Walking the Edit for Brussels is produced by the Liedts-Meesen Foundation and iMAL.
