Abstract
In the history of aesthetics and politics the facts forming our perception of reality have often been questioned even overcome by specific events. Events capable of creating an ambiance of undeniable emotional and behavioural impact. Generating thoughts inside the mind, yet revealed in every aspect of the surroundings (environment built or natural). Psychogeography comes to consolidate the methods, the place and the time. The dérive, the détournement, the moment (as defined by Henri Lefebvre), the “Other”, the cityscape, the construction of situations. “We propose to invent new, changeable decors....” notes Ivan Chtcheglov supporting that “architecture is the simplest means of articulating time and space, of modulating reality, of engendering dreams”. Arguments stemming from the critique of social lifestyle and from the need to change everyday life
