A friend (who told me about Fifthworldproblems, IIRC) and I used to do dérives all the time. We called it Shambling. It wasn’t until much later that I learned about the dérive and psychogeography and how it intertwines with ideas about magick.
This year I want to start organising formal ones between municipal greenspace workers having a union drive, the local DSA’s environmental justice committee, and regulars in the parks who have a daily personal connection to those landscapes. It seems like a really powerful tool for achieving something like Pedagogy of the Oppressed’s model and normalising holistic radical conversations.

I miss it.
