In today’s hyper-digital world, the increasing reliance on technology has led to a phenomenon known as “digital placelessness.” This is where our interactions with urban spaces become more superficial, as they are often mediated by screens and digital tools, reducing the depth of our engagement with the physical environment.

“How might we create an inclusive urban walking exploration practice that integrates community participation and Glasgow’s cultural narratives to foster meaningful environmental interactions?”

“Lost & Embrace Glasgow” is a project dedicated to transforming walking into an inclusive and enriching urban exploration practice. By embedding Glasgow’s rich cultural narratives and fostering active community participation, the project aims to deepen connections between individuals and their environment. It seeks to challenge conventional perspectives on urban spaces and encourages a more engaged and connected experience of the city. Ultimately, this initiative strives to promote community cohesion, cultural appreciation, and environmental mindfulness, contributing to a more inclusive and vibrant urban life in Glasgow.
