Abstract
This article examines what I call ‘pulsing’ – visible surges of pedestrian activity. It applies a selection of Torsten Hägerstrand’s time-geographic vocabulary in an ethnographic case-study of Mitzpe Ramon, a small Negev Desert town in Israel, illustrating how various spatio-temporal constraints shape flows of walking at daily, weekly, and annual scales. Pulsing, I argue, simply but powerfully communicates when events of collective interest occur, where, for which groups, and at what volumes. Pulsing embodies cultural practices through mobilities, and shapes community norms. Extending beyond this particular example, I also suggest that the concept of pulsing advances understandings of synchrony and synchory in collective pedestrianism and mobilities more broadly, including pilgrimage, urban rhythms, commuter patterns, periodicity, rush hours, and the filling and emptying of public space.
