Orange spray-painted “repair requests” on the ceilings of Schönleinstraße Station are captured into panorama images using an iPhone SE2 camera. A .mov file and a .wav file bookend the image sequence. Berlin is a city of constant reconstruction and change in routes. Unexpected flows of movement emerge with orange markings all around the city, while mobility stays constant. Moving from point A to E, the files are lined up as a set of guidelines or detour marks for a potential new route.
