A place you have never been. by Loki, anna one

Both of us had plans for this task long ago. anna one was poised to install a chalk mandala at the office of the Journal of Psychoactive Drugs, while Loki came very near to a completion which differed from Spidere's only in being a few days later and far less interesting.
Years later, we found ourselves with a few hours to kill and decided to actually complete it.
The original random word generating website is long gone. After spending far too long trying to find a replacement online, we cobbled together our own and generated the word disuse.
Google maps turned up a wikipedia article inspired location: The Waimakariri River.
Actually, the map sent us to a seemingly random spot in the middle of Charon street, a few blocks away from the river itself. In the time since we completed this task, the Google results have changed, and now appear much more reasonable. Our image capture of the original map was lost in a hard drive failure. (It is only thanks to the magic of photorec that we have any proof of the task completion.)
The rest is in captions.

I imagine the scene in a strange dream like sequence, or in a movie where nobody talks... I'm not sure why.

I am floored. every single one of my five votes was for those snails. there were none left for the rest of this praxis.
Ah, written in snails. A neat chrononautic completion.
