Tasks / Hazing

This task is retired.

To be able to fully understand the motives behind the movement of others, psychogeographers should have as few restrictions on their own movement as possible.
Choose a location-based fear and go to a place where you are forced to face this fear.
Stay there for as long as you can. Document both the act and the effect it has on you (both in the short- and long-term).

Some examples include:
Acrophobia (or altophobia) - the fear of heights.
Aquaphobia (or hydrophobia) - the fear of water.
Agoraphobia - the fear of places where escape is impossible or help is unavailable.
Claustrophobia - the fear of confined spaces.
Gephyrophobia - the fear of bridges.
Nyctophobia (or achluophobia, lygophobia, scotophobia) - the fear of the dark.

Meh.
What if you have no phobias? What will hanging out on a bridge all day prove?

Oh, come on...you're saying there's nothing that you're afraid of?

I might be afraid of something. Maybe. But I haven't found what that thing is yet.

There are certainly things that I used to be afraid of, but I got over those.
I used to be afraid of being trapped. And death. And being alone. And failure. But now I can't think of anything I'm afraid of.

i would love to read a praxis where you find out what you're afraid of
even if you never answer the question
the journey should be epic

I've been trying to find it my whole time here. I've been pushing myself this whole time. Go read my past praxis to see in which ways I've pushed thus far. I hope to continue to push in the future. We'll see what happens...
