Psychogeography

Psychogeography is the study of how our emotional and psychological experiences are shaped by our environments, particularly urban spaces. It explores how different places impact our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. By examining city landscapes, architecture, and social interactions, psychogeographers seek to understand the relationship between individuals and their surroundings. This field often involves wandering through cities, allowing the environment to evoke memories and feelings, and can reveal insights about social dynamics, cultural history, and personal identity. In essence, it connects the spatial experience with psychological responses, enriching our understanding of both space and self.
