...from Robert Frost's The Road Not Taken (1920)
The GeoCane allows you to create adventure; to reclaim the idea of a trailblazer: creating a path that no one before you has taken. It combines both contemporary and historical ideas of navigation and exploration, using digital technology to guide you on an unknown path.
And no one can best describe how this spiffy new device actually works better than its creator, Felix Hardmood Beck:
Geographical coordinates for a specific goal are loaded onto the GeoCane through a docking-station. Throughout the Neo-Pilgrimage an integrated microchip traces the chosen path, so that you are never guided on an already known road. By a slight vibration at grasping hight, the cane leads the way for the user. The place of destination remains unknown for the user and is not of such great importance as the path in itself.
"This path is narrow / Just wide enough to follow / I wonder where it will go" - The Path by Blues Traveler.
