Walk in Time

Walk in Time
Donaueschingen, Germany
Walking piece

Daniel Beerstecher started his extreme Slow-Walk Marathon within the Donaugalerie Tuttlingen on July 14, 2019 at noon at the Museum ArtPlus in Donaueschingen. He walked along the Danube for about 60 days, continued to Tuttlingen and to the finish line on the runway of the ariport Neuhausen ob Eck. In a distance of 42,195 km he walked approximately 120 meters per hour, for 6 hours each day.

During this radical deceleration, his current positions and coordinates, a live video and walking speed were transmitted via GPS and technologies of extreme athletes, on his website and at the Museum ArtPlus, the Kunsthalle Göppingen and the Gallery of the City of Tuttlingen.

In an innovative way the artist dealt with the geographical, technical and social conditions and challenges of our present. Online followers and local audiences could attend or even join the physical part of the performance.

nuddle

Back in the 1500s, nuddle had a few meanings that congregated low to the ground: To nuddle was to push something along with your nose or nudge forward in some other horizontal manner. By the 1800s, nuddle started referring to stooped walking, the kind of non-jaunty mosey in which someone’s head is hanging low. You can hear a touch of contempt in a phrase from an 1854 glossary by A. E. Baker: “How he goes nuddling along.” Credits to Mark Peters.
