This website exhibits digitization of on-the-spot sketches to reflect upon people in transit - a characteristic condition of humanity from the beginning, but one more and more often and more and more radically assumed as the 21st Century began. While this site may reveal something profound about us all, it is also presented because people in transit, around the world, present a fascinating picture. This site and its 77 drawings were created by Robert P. Taylor of Teachers College, Columbia University, in New York City. The original drawings were done en route in various transportation vehicles or in waiting rooms and attached restaurants, in New York City and elsewhere in the world.

Intransit is one of several Related Taylor websites accessible below which use on-the-spot drawings to create records of spontaneous or serendipitous human encounters which, though they help shape human lives, are seldom included in the records of those lives. Additional comments about this purpose of the site appear in Further Explanation for this site, below. Intransit exhibits its drawings in several concurrent exhibits, all accessible through Index to all Exhibits, a link appearing at the foot of most pages. Finally, communications are welcome and may be sent through Comments, at the foot of every page.
