Explaination of my Idea

Whilst reading lots of things about physchogeography, I realised how much it ties in with Parkour. A traceur has to respond and adapt thier movements to thier enviroment, being competely aware of thier surroundings.

"Parkour is an activity with the aim of moving from one point to another as efficiently and quickly as possible, using principally the abilities of the human body. It is meant to help one overcome obstacles, which can be anything in the surrounding environment — from branches and rocks to rails and concrete walls — and can be practiced in both rural and urban areas."

I thought it wuold be interesting if I could make the urban enviroment respond to the traceur - as well as te traceur responding to the enviroment. I'm going to make a short video tracking a run, where the surrondings are changing and responding to the movemets of the traceur.
