FUßGÄNGER:
"pedestrian"; "flâneur"; a "gentleman stroller of city streets"; "lounger"; "saunterer"; "loafer"; a "person who walks the city in order to experience it"; an "idle man-about-town"; a "complete philosophical way of living and thinking".
The walls are the desk against which he presses his notebooks; newsstands are his libraries and the terraces of cafés are the balconies from which he looks down on his household after his work is done. -Walter Benjamin,"The Flâneur"

You’ve probably never heard of Natsumi Hayashi. You’ve also probably never seen photos quite like the ones she enjoys taking.
You see, one day, Natsumi decided to take a few self-portraits – of herself levitating. Nowadays, she can be seen in and around Tokyo, with camera and self-timer in hand.
When she feels inspired, she hits the shutter button down and literally “jumps” into place, making it seem as though she actually levitates through her everyday life.
GEARING UP FOR MY MOVE TO JAPAN IN MARCH…
