Psycho-geography

Psycho-geography describes the effect of a geographical location on the emotions and behaviour of individuals.
The term psycho-geography was invented by the Marxist theorist Guy Debord in 1955 in order to explore this. Inspired by the French nineteenth century poet and writer Charles Baudelaire’s concept of the flâneur – an urban wanderer – Debord suggested playful and inventive ways of navigating the urban environment in order to examine its architecture and spaces.
