Title: Adopt A Walk

Description:

This is an audio-guide of an experiment of gait analysis,
If you never heard about this term, gait analysis is the study of walking patterns as used by new surveillance biometric technologies.
People are asked to walk following a series of spoken instructions. The walks are stored temporarily on a page where youre invited to “adopt a walk” of another person.

“Have you ever tried to identify someone by the way they walk?
Surveillance technologies are using homogenic perception of human beings as a model for their mechanics.”

With this experiment youre suggested to observe characteristics of other walks and adopt them. 
In adopting a different walk do you become someone else?
Will it be you or someone elses identity that is detected by these surveillance algorithms?
