The Flaneur
For this first part of the assignment I decided to focus on the reading "Taking A Line For A Walk" by Raymond Lucas. Especially the screenshot of the paragraph above.
I thought the idea of people being at home on a crowded busy street and in the public city was fascinating. I also thought the same applied to animals as they often sleep and eat among busy city shoppers and workers without being too timid or running/flying away.
Places in the city with benches, tables or playgrounds is where people seem to be the most at home. I think the person's character can also be a big impact. Seem people are naturally comfortable and will put their belongings on the ground, sit on a char and cross their legs or even spread themselves out while others just went to get to their destination as quickly as possible or if they need to sit will huddle their bags close to them as they seem to have no trust in just putting it on the ground in the city.
