Walking Here And There is a research and development project supported by the Wellcome Trust's SciArt Fund.

The project is a collaboration between the artist Simon Pope and the neuropsychologist Vaughan Bell and aims to investigate the interaction of place and memory in psychosis, and particularly reduplicative paramnesia, the delusional belief that a place exists in two or more locations simultaneously.

It aims to develop an experimental framework through which to bring an experience of this otherwise exceptional condition into everyday life and to explore relationships between space, mobility, delusion and memory.
