D. F. M. (Digital Flâneur)

The Digital Flâneur (D.F.M.) is a concept that combines the idea of a flâneur—a leisurely observer of urban life—with the experience of navigating digital spaces. In the context of the internet and social media, a digital flâneur explores online environments like browsing websites, engaging with social media, or consuming content without a specific purpose. This process fosters a sense of connection and creativity, as individuals absorb information and culture from the digital world, much like a flâneur would in a bustling city. It highlights the art of wandering through the digital landscape and appreciating its richness.
