A response to the ISTD Power brief, exploring the subjectivity of power through type. A continuation of the dissertation, the outcome is a deeper interrogation of post structuralist theory, exploring a spatial connection with type, shape and the page. The publication is a typogeographical interpretation of the original chapter, published in the Situationist International in post-war France by Guy Debord and Asger Jorn in 1958. The Situationists were a group of radically charged avant-garde artists that challenged the imposed logic toward everyday life by societal structures of power. The Dérive is an experimental method of drifting through urban space.
