ABSTRACT
In this chapter, the author offers a partial overview of Herefordshire as a county through the lens of her own particular relationship with it, both as a resident and a former local government landscape officer. She examines the reciprocal topographic imprint the West Midlands 'region' has left on her own practice. The three Herefordshire-based performance works that comprise the current oeuvre of tracktivism are All in a Day's Walk, Drop in the Ocean and Trans-missions. Each has its own elemental theme: food, water and power, respectively. The conception of each tracktivist performance is marked by the formulation of a score. The author uses the term 'score' according to the conventions of contemporary performance practice to describe a set of rules that are adhered to occasionally subverted by the performer. She describes the scores for each work, and offers some reflections on her own, specific experience of performing them and in doing so, walking a personal conception of 'region' into being.
