Dérive (n.)

One of the basic situationist practices is the dérive (“drifting”), a technique of rapid passage through varied ambiances. Dérives involve playful-constructive behavior and awareness of psychogeographical effects, and are thus quite different from the classic notions of journey or stroll.
