The Dérive

The Dérive, a concept from situationist theory, is an unplanned journey through urban landscapes driven by spontaneous exploration rather than destinations. It encourages drifting through city streets to experience the environment differently, allowing perceptions to shape movement. By detaching from routine and deliberate goals, the Dérive aims to reveal new perspectives, challenge perceptions of space, and foster a playful, immersive engagement with urban surroundings. Essentially, it’s about wandering freely to discover hidden aspects of cities and break away from conventional navigation, promoting creativity and a deeper connection to one's environment.
