Moving Through Images questions how images and (visual) reproductions of physical surroundings influence our gaze and perception. This two-part publication was developed as both a tool and result of experimental research that started in Vienna in 2022. One part is an interactive Prompt Book designed to explore, thoroughly experience, and actively engage with physical environments. The other part is a collection of images created by using the Prompt Book, accompanied by texts that critically examine topics such as walking, navigation, perception, and media. With its interwoven content, Moving Through Images addresses questions such as: What are the relationships between what we see and perceive in our physical surroundings and how they are depicted? Is a place perceived differently in its physical form compared to its visual reproductions or simulations? Browsing through a book’s pages is analogous to moving through the streets of a city. One always has only a section of a larger entity in front of one’s eyes—the street through which one is currently moving, a sentence, a paragraph, or a page that one is reading. The often seemingly random connections and correlations between individual fragments and situations must always be discovered first.
