- Desire Path
- In architecture and urban planning, the origin substrate, the desire path is the dirt track cutting the corner across a lawn, the worn diagonal across a campus quad, the cow paths of older cities.
This sourceModels how repeated low-friction passage by pedestrians (and, in the active-walker formulation, animals) cumulatively wears a substrate into a network of trails that diverge from designed routes — the physical mechanism and the human/non-human generality of desire-path / game-trail formation.
