Desire Path is a term usually given to a human or animal made path within an environment or landscape. These are sometimes called fisherman’s or wildlife trails, where the grass is beaten down over time by regular use. The term is also used in Design Research as an example of how humans will sometimes walk through and create a fresh path from point to point rather than follow a designated designed one.
I’m quite interested in how our intrinsic behavioral patterns have been distorted and changed by this virus. Imagery within in it includes mackerel skies, a mach cone, a mottled beauty moth and satellite dishes.
