Hastings Dérive - University trip & project

A dérive is a strategy for moving through a city or a space, wandering aimlessly without direction or a destination in mind. In French, dérive literally means drifting. Developed in the 1950s in Paris by The Situationist International group, a dérive aims to break down and renew your everyday relations with the spaces around you. To encounter and ‘drift’ through the town of Hastings, ‘getting lost’ in this environment, recording our experiences through media such as, location drawings and other notes in a sketchbook, photography, video, sound recordings etc.
