Radiolab bloggers Phia Bennin and Brenda McMullan put together a post describing how they came across the idea of a “color walk” and what this color walk did for the both of them.

To start their post, Bennin and McMullan explained that they came across this “delightful idea” while working on a show that dealt with colors. They also explained how this idea was originally created.”Back in the day, William Burroughs dreamed up a tool to inspire his students: color walks” (paragraph two).

Next they go on to describe what a color walk actually is.”Just walk out your door, pick a color that catches your eye, and watch your surroundings pop as you follow the color from object to object” (paragraph two). Following this description they give examples of their personal color walk and how it affected them. “We walked away seeing a world brimming over with colors”(paragraph three).

At the end of the post they give readers instructions/ advice on how to conduct their own color walks. For example they suggest they you allow yourself to have a hour of “uninterrupted time” as well as letting the color of your choice guide you.
