The walks presented in this website give a glimpse into our method of "urban empiricism" and our excursions on foot through the city, in which we documented street chairs by indexing on maps the locations of the seats photographed. In more than 50 walks we collected over a 1000 polaroid images of original chairs from the streets of Cairo and discovered a city that revealed itself as a patchwork of contrasting areas. The maps of the areas highlighted in this website show some of our paths along the city and reveal the rich diversity of the urban fabrics we encountered.
