Transmedia participative project: app, book collection, video and exhibition.

Traces is a collective project that provides a chance to experience a dérive [literally: “drifting”, a technique of rapid passage through varied ambiances] and verify its capacity to document urban space from different perspectives while using a common methodology and creating a psychogeographical map of Barcelona.

Following the concept of a dérive proposed by Guy Debord, on the 7th of December, 2013, seven authors photographed the city, guided by intuition. The starting point for each author as well who would be his editor was chosen by a drawing. The same day the route was completed; each photographer turned in 100 photos in order for another author to select 21 of them.
