Abstract

Walking as a means of transportation is credited with improving health, climate, and personal awareness of space. Cognitive capacity to navigate independently without GPS support has decreased over time, which has increased technological reliance and decreased spatial awareness. For new urban residents, walking can be one of the best ways to acquaint themselves with their new city. By slowing down and taking time to notice, users can develop deeper, more conscious cognitive maps of space. This investigation explores how new urban residents can implement multisensory noticing while walking in order to decrease technological dependence and bring awareness to space around them.
