"In a dérive one or more persons during a certain period drop their relations, their work and leisure activities, and all theeir 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 dérive point of view cities have psychogeographical contours, with constant currents, fixed points and vortexes that strongly discourage entry inoto or exit from certain zones." (Debord, 1958)
For my Psycheography project I decided to start in a car park near wikinsons in Leicester. The scope of my journey was totally random. I chose to map the buildings in leicester from different perspectives for example abandoned buildings and looking up and down at strange angles. I have documented my journey using photographs and putting them together using windows movie maker. The algorithms I used in my journey was throwing two dices, the number they added up to, I would go down that number of streets.
