Dérive
"Dérive is an explorative journey through the city which offers the potential for the chance encounter, observation, interaction or exchange within a constantly changing, shifting and disorientating urban terrain. The citizen engaging in a derive consciously interrogates, engages with and transforms the constructed landscape." (Porter, T. pg 41, Archispeak)

WEEK 7_ The last presentations
The last week of presentations (24-29 August) was a very stressful week for the group because we had many submissions and presentations. On Tuesday (25 August) we had PechaKusha where we invited our volunteers and NGOs to the FADA auditorium to see our work. The PechaKusha proved to be the most interesting yet because the volunteers felt comfortable speaking out about their fears and their wishes for the continuation of the project. This made us realize the impact our work had on the community of Denver.
On Friday (29 August) we got to present again in Denver but this time we had to speak zulu to make sure that the volunteers and community members could understand our intentions. After the presentation the community members and volunteers walked through the hall at the Men's Hostel looking through our work and asking about our intervention.
The presentations were pinned up on the walls of the Men's Hostel. on the left we had to present construction with Jason Frenkel; on the left we presented our PechaKusha on a stage; on the two remaining walls we presented our group work and intentions for our site.
The site models from Group A-F were laid on the floor to make up an overall 1:200 site model of Denver
