Publisher's Synopsis
Merlin Coverley explores and explains the origins and actualities of Psychogeography, tracing its antecedents in the Situationist Movement of the 1950s through to present day manifestations in the work of Ian Sinclair and Stewart Home. From Urban Wandering to Cognitive Mapping, Psychogeography provides new ways of apprehending one's surroundings, transforming the familiar streets of everyday experience into something new and unexpected. Coverley conducts the reader through this process, offering explanation, definition and analysis of key figures and organisations.
