Remapping Westminster

[Raconteur]

This is a brilliant idea!

[Kaytaaay]

Anna is the greatest. <3

[teacakestalks]

This is an amazing idea. I really want to do this when I'm travelling next year instead of using guidebooks and Google Maps.

[aimeelikescheese]

This is officially one of my favorite videos ever. I love it :)

[allylucky13]

gah! such a good idea!

OK I'm so doing this :)

[Pottsylird]

This was so beautiful.

You are so fucking talented.

To think I watched a video of you a few years back and thought you were boring. But I either caught you on an off day or was far too immature to pay attention properly. Never change. The fault was with me.

<3

[hilloffski]

I really really reaaally liked this, but I don't exactly know why!

[KieliAnne]

Neat idea! I should try this some time! :)

[JordynJitters]

this is a really cool idea. :]

[joetavish]

aye good  video

[moi1st93]

I would do that where I live but I live on a tiny island so I think I'll just wander around on my bike.

[SweetAsAStrawberry]

This is such a pretty video and such a cool idea! London <3

[uponastratocumulus]

That's such a clever idea and made a really great video. It reminded me how beautiful and wonderful London is.

[ERSorensen]

I'm a canadian something.

[FlailingHenchmen]

That is a great idea. :)

[travelchica25]

Love this. Was just visiting London last month (from the U.S.) and saw some of these places. I love wandering the streets looking at the buildings & parks :)

[rachelloveschocolate]

Lovely video...London is soooo awesome and a lot of people don't see it. Lovely lovely video :-)

[maggiehanna]

That is an awesome idea! It looked like a lot of fun. I think I might try it sometime.

[caliowin]

What a fabulous idea Rosi! I hope you film your future map adventures. I love maps and I am totally stealing this idea.

[BlackettChris]

This is such a good project, and especially in and around Westminster, theres so many lesser-known places to stumble on, though in sure thats true of lots of London.

[firnantok]

That is an amazing idea! Great video! :)

[adamtrasklives]

Such an amazing idea. And your outfit is GORGEOUS.

[xojazz371]

This video as well as your "the curve if the earth" just remind me how much I love you and your videos!

[judyandthecat]

all this london love reminds of a quote: Who is sick of London, is sick of Life! True that!

[MrSirPopey]

Such a brilliant idea! I think I might try this soon, I've been wanting to make more use of my camera and go on a mini urban exploration but when you live so close to central London it's difficult to look at it through the eyes of a tourist and actually SEE London.

[ninadotdotdot]

That is a wonderful idea!

[lmac1970]

Oh you loon! :-)

[sincemarchoflastyear]

This is such an amazing idea, I'd love to do this with my local city sometime.

[kissmytutu16]

I visited London this past summer for the Harry Potter premiere with one of my best friends who lives there.

You made me miss London even more than what I already do, which is a lot.

Great video, brings back the best memories I have so far :)

[CompanyCar]

Thanks for letting me tag along, girl! Still impressed that I pulled that super straight line at the end and it got us almost perfectly to our destination. Friggin fate. PS: seeing this in accidental time-lapse is hilarious.

[missxrojas]

@CompanyCar Thanks for taking on this brave quest! & yeah, fate was definitely on our side.

[CompanyCar]

@toastnuances ty Andrew

[toastnuances]

ANNA CINCERA RULES

[kimrichaaards]

You like driftless pony club? hell yeah I'm subscribing to you! :P

[missxrojas]

:D love dpc! & thank you!

[Linawk]

Aww I was in London this week-end with some friends and now I miss it! Great video, and a very cool idea! I need to try that out.

[emdash1000]

Such a fun idea! Sounds like a great way to visit new places, or take a closer look at places you pass by on the daily basis. Thanks for sharing, Rosi!

[frustrationhole]

I always watch your videos and think 'this would make a good book' so I guess you're doing something right.

[darth3pio]

I like the piece of music at the beginning, I've always had a fondness for classical instruments, used to play the trumpet.

[missxrojas]

@darth3pio Haha it's the iMovie jingle "Travel" I think.

[darth3pio]

@missxrojas Well, you learn something new everyday, we don't have iMovie over on Linux =)

[darth3pio]

@missxrojas I remember what it reminds me of, sounds a bit similar to the theme tune from House of Elliot.

[MolinMUSE]

Effington! :D And I'm totally doing this in my own city this coming weekend.

[KatherineHSchneider]

What an awesome idea!

[PaigrRoo]

*steals idea and puts in pocket for use at a later date*

[pickles4muggles]

this is an amazing idea and looks like so much funn! I'm definitely doing this one day.

[TheWomblemaster]

`i recognise those arches from a video game` classic!

[cameronfrye23]

The time-lapse stuff was an accident? It was so good. Or you just used it really well. Wonderful.

[Maireadeator]

I wouldnt have thought of that in a million years! ..also would love to go to London, looks like a lovely place.

[NatalieZenaLouise]

1) The concept was brilliant

2) The editing was brilliant

3) I want to go to that party!

[jackandjuice]

Your ideas never cease to amaze.

[mimimeila]

This looks like lots of fun! I'm basically just stuck at home in my small town all day so it's nice when I get to see you our and exploring when you're near such gorgeous sights!

[curiouscookie]

excellent idea! It'd be a great way to explore a city that you'd never been to as well as discovering hidden treasures in your own.

[lianneinthebigworld]

This is such an awesome idea! It feels like such an adventure :)

[Ironballs69]

Good video as always!

Grey squirrels are evil :(

[tallatstarbucks]

This is so cool! I shall have to try it sometime!

[amber6675]

What a fantastic idea!! :D

[notjustrhys]

The final clip reminded me of how non-youtbers must feel when they see a youtube gathering

[alucidminute]

Wow this is great! I am so going to do this. This video made me happy haha

[Jpeterson48371]

You have such awesome ideas. I can only hope when I get to London I can have as much fun. Trying for next spring.

[nicciweasley]

Brilliant idea!

[marillbuddy]

What a great idea for exploring! I know when I try and go somewhere different I tend to stick at some nice place and not move on, but following the line allows for a sort of quest mindset - to the end of the line! (Squiggled or otherwise.)

[rexlovestoboogie]

one day if i have kids im going to take them on trips n do this with them. just an idea

[Rantpodder]

Unintentional time lapse actually turned out REALLY effective!

However, this is a great idea, seriously considering trying it :).

[celobean]

Have you read 'Translations' (brian friel)? you must!

[missxrojas]

@celobean Have not, shall add to list!

[amockingbookshelf]

Driftless Pony Club <3

[JoelJoel321]

That was fun : )

[SableCaught]

Love St James park. When my friends and I were littler we would go after school and all sit amongst the branches of our favourite tree and read our gcse texts to each other. Tourists used to take photos of the little uniformed girls, reading in the tree.

[searchingforpebbles]

absolutely incredible! i needed something to inspire me today and this was it :)

[judyandthecat]

Great idea to explore a city! In the last town I lived we took the tram just for fun and we saw so many interesting places you would never see as a normal tourist.

[fedaykin6]

LOL @ crazy squirrel

[missxrojas]

@prendrefeu This comment seemed so cute until it got a bit creepy towards the end! But yeah they're everywhere and most of them are tame, in a squirrelly way.

[missxrojas]

@WolfInRedJeans hahahaha well I thought it was only fair, she OFTEN makes me think!

[SocrateSoul]

Inexplicably, this is the third time I've watched this video today. Not sure if it's the brilliance of the idea (which I will promptly be stealing for my city, Vancouver), the DPC, or just the general awesomeness.

Rosianna's video, Y U NO HAVE WAY MORE VIEWS. Soon, I'm sure :)

[rhetoricallyyours]

This was fantastic, what a cool idea!

[LissaAOE]

the time lapse bit looked kind of cool. =)

[Pdftprngs]

This is such a cool idea! How did you come up with this??

[ItTakesII]

Anna! Look at you walking around in England! This video is boss. I love the tracing paper idea and the DPC background music. -julian

[allshalldelight]

That's such a clever idea.... Also I love the song.

[Goon1488]

Such an awesome idea :-)

[KendalK18]

this is SUCH a cool idea. I want to try it!

[OxBigly2010]

That is a really kick-awesome idea.

[x0kindlemyheart0x]

This is so clever. I wish I could come up with ideas like this.

[samwisegamgee09]

I'm at once excited to do this and afraid. Excited because I love the idea of following where the map is leading you, yet you're choosing the map (if that makes sense). Afraid because I don't live in London, and some places I genuinely cannot safely go into. :/ conflicted.

[ellabooray]

What a wicked idea.

I did not realise that squirrels frolicked.

[missxrojas]

@ellabooray They also, according to Lex on a piece of footage I had to cut out, "ninja". I give you this example, "ROSI THAT SQUIRREL JUST NINJAED THAT OTHER SQUIRREL IN MID-AIR".

[seurat2]

That's a lovely idea Rosi, hope you do it often and keep providing us with footage of your discoveries. Meanwhile any party that I can imagine could only be improved by inviting you and your awesome friends.

[goingforthegold]

Rosianna, what a brilliant idea! Where did you get the inspiration from?

[missxrojas]

@goingforthegold Reading lots and lots of theory books about radical cartography!

[Issykle]

This video made me incredibly nostalgic of my time in London. I miss it so much! And to see so many familiar places in your video! I can't wait to go back and do something similar with friends xx

[horrendousblah]

You should do more of these videos if you have the time! Looks like you could discover a lot of cool places!

[puppysfurme]

I love this idea!!! This seems like a great way to explore a new city or even rediscover a place you thought you knew. I definitely want to try this!

[indianajoneanaheim2]

Wow, a lot of activities today.

[livecleanandprosper]

Canadian Geese, Just fyi.

[taysteekiwiz]

Such a wonderful and fun idea.

I cannot wait to try it out when I go abroad!

Also, wonderful visuals. I liked the insight into a unique moment. It was inspiring and very cool.

Keep making awesome vids!

[MimsieSky]

That's a really awesome idea! Maybe next time I'm in London I'll have to try that! :)

[juliaforyourthoughts]

Really creative idea. Your videos always have an interesting and fresh edge. Cinematography was brilliant as well. x

[tashaa23]

This is such an interesting idea, I love it! Would you mind if I borrowed it for a photography project at uni? I was having trouble thinking up ideas until now!

[ninjoy17]

I always love your videos. They're thoughtful and fun and so well done. And this in particular is super adventurous and makes me want to go exploring. :)

[hb2578]

What an awesome idea!

[erikaverha]

This is fantastic!



[mbishardcore]

This is probably one of my favorite of your videos. I love the idea you began with and getting a glimpse into a day with you and your friends is always lovely, but I especially enjoyed the montage you segued into at the end. I thought the music was perfectly chosen and you did an excellent job of incorporating it with what came before and what came after -- and the end was classic YouTube video style, haha. I'm glad that you enjoy making videos, because yours are excellent.

[twentynineducks]

BEST IDEA EVER!

[MajorFail1]

I love this idea :)

Having just moved away from London, I've really started to appreciate how special it is. Not that where I am now isn't beautiful too, but I think I kinda fell into the mindset Lex described around 0:30

And yeah, the science museum building is f*ing epic.

[littlediscoveries]

seriously brilliant idea! I wish I was adventurous enough to do this. And I feel that London is the perfect city to do this in, I'd love to do this the next time I'm there. your beautiful footage made me miss London so much.

oh and for Lex, those are Canadian geese and they're kind of annoying as hell here.

btw, Rosianna your maxi skirt is gorgeous, you really do have wonderful style.

[booksandquills]

This is such a great idea! I might steal it :D

The video looks beautiful.

[HazzaPistheDocsBFF]

Thats brilliant :D

[eleanorashby]

This was really cool. I'll have to try it with my own city, particularly since I just moved here. What do you do when the roads and the line don't match up? Do you place it at random or try to make it fit to the roads?

[missxrojas]

@eleanorashby Well we had to go towards East London because we were meeting friends at Nandos there but my ruling was that if the road doesn't match up and the squiggle veers to the right, you just take the next right. But it's true, the existing mapping does provide an interesting/frustrating obstacle in this quest!

[cptncatholi]

Very cool!

[chokolux]

This seems like such a fun activity to do! I definitely have to try this out with my friends. :)

[InkyPages]

What a marvellous idea! It looks like you had a great time.

[SuperNerdyNatalie]

This is suck a great idea!

[mav2010x]

<3

[peaceissainity]

1st!
