By pedestrian knowledges I mean those unique but banal urban operations that are generated by the space of the city. In Bhaktapur, pedestrian knowledges are the lived strategies of shuttling between tradition and modernity, between gods, politics, tourism, and the influx of Hindi television and American popular music. Bhaktapur¹s pedestrian knowledges are the productions, distribution, and consumptive practices through which the city is constituted, reproduced, and transformed. The strategies of pedestrian knowledges do not operate with grid-like rules . Instead, like a winding path through the city (or the woof and warp of hyper-text), these systems of knowledge endlessly circulate in Bhaktapur (with no origin and no teleological goal).
