Explanation of Psychogeography
How do various places make us feel and behave? The term psychogeographic was discovered by Marxist Guy Debord theorist in 1955 to explore this. Inspired by the concept of poet and writer of the 19th century French Charles Baudelaire about Flâneur – A city wanderer – Debord suggested ways to be fun and inventory to navigate urban environments to examine architecture and space.
As a member of the founder of the Avant-Garde Situationist International movement, the international movement of artists, writers and poets that aim to break the obstacles between culture and daily life, Debord wants a revolutionary approach to architecture that is less functional and more open for exploration.
The rearrangement of the city proposed by Psychogeography is rooted in Badainism and surrealism, an art movement that explores ways to release the subconscious imagination. Tristam Hillier paintings such as La Route Des Alkes 1937 can be described as an initial example of a concept.
