Very interesting Neil, as always. Most Situationists these days are hiding in plain sight. Most probably no social media profile. I cant even find them myself! Is it a coincidence that when Situationism became sexy in academia, mobile phone mapping and google were on the ascendancy. Is that even relevant? In any case keep up the good work...
lol solargeography! Yes this is def a thing. I walk all year round, and I live in a place that's so sweltering in summer that I weave across the street to get in the shady parts and so freezing in winter that I weave into the sunny parts. It's annoying for whoever I walk with but now that there's a term for it I feel vindicated
Hi Neil, such an interesting read! I will definitely experiment myself with a few of these...
A pity I can't read the whole article from the magazine. And congrats!
Fantastic, let me know how you get on with the experiments!
Nice post, wandering around, following one's nose, one's desires is indeed an excellent way to discover a city.
Thank you! It is something of a lockdown post but hopefully still relevant.

Thank you! I suspect situationism died after flash mobs.
This is really cool. Thanks for sharing.

There are some great dérive experiments here. I particularly like 1,2&4.
A very interesting read…. food for thought 🤔
