- content: "One of the basic situationist practices is the d\xE9rive [literally: \"\
- drifting\"], a technique of rapid passage through varied ambiances. D\xE9rives involve\
- \ playful-constructive behavior and awareness of psychogeographical effects, and\
- \ are thus quite different from the classic notions of journey or stroll.\r\n\r\n\
- In a d\xE9rive one or more persons during a certain period drop their relations,\
- \ their work and leisure activities, and all their other usual motives for movement\
- \ and action, and let themselves be drawn by the attractions of the terrain and\
- \ the encounters they find there. Chance is a less important factor in this activity\
- \ than one might think: from a d\xE9rive point of view cities have psychogeographical\
- \ contours, with constant currents, fixed points and vortexes that strongly discourage\
- \ entry into or exit from certain zones."
