	Ivan Chtcheglov - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Ivan Chtcheglov, born 1934, is a Russian political theorist, activist and poet, active in France but formely resident of the Soviet Union.
		He wrote "Formulary for a New Urbanism" in 1953, at age nineteen under the name Gilles Ivain, which was an inspiration to the Lettrist International and Situationist International.
		Chtcheglov pleaded for an architecture of ambiance en situations.

	The Hacienda must be destroyed
		Chtcheglov evokes the mingled boredom and serendipity of a random exploration of Paris; he then contrasts this with the fabled ease of "the hacienda", an image of aristocratic leisure.
		Chtcheglov goes on to argue that urban architecture directly conditions social life, creating an environment determined by the city's own history ("all cities are geological").
		When the drift was formulated the members of the LI were in their teens and early twenties; if the drift carried out by Debord and Chtcheglov at the end of 1953 was typical, a drift could include several hours spent drinking in bars.

		Chtcheglov came to the attention of the authorities after attempting to dynamite the Eiffel Tower, but before he disappeared into the psychiatric system he left his brief but inexhaustible tract.
		Chtcheglov was at the forefront of the Lettrist interest in the affective environment and the construction of emotionally determined ambiences by décor.
		Chtcheglov saw the dérive as potentially a kind of ambulant free-association: The dérive (with its flow of acts, its gestures, its strolls, its encounters) was to the totality exactly what psychoanalysis (in the best sense) is to language.

	Formulary for a New Urbanism (Ivan Chtcheglov)
		In a few years it would become the intellectual capital of the world and would be universally recognized as such.
		“Ivan Chtcheglov participated in the ventures that were at the origin of the situationist movement, and his role in it has been irreplaceable, both in its theoretical endeavors and in its practical activity (the dérive experiments).
		In 1953, at the age of 19, he had already drafted — under the pseudonym Gilles Ivain — the text entitled “Formulary for a New Urbanism,” which was later published in the first issue of Internationale Situationniste.

		Hopefully, any definitions can remain ambiguous, for this tension may be what gives the idea its dynamism, but it also makes it difficult to found a practice on it.
		A constant threat of devolving into a ascetic utopianism or an uncritical acceptance of the banal.] Before Debord, another situationist, Ivan Chtcheglov had declared "It must be sought in the magical locales of fairy tales and surrealist writings: castles, endless walls, little forgotten bars, mammoth caverns, casino mirrors." [Formulary for a new urbanism,1953].
		Chtcheglov, for instance, received his inspiration from the paintings of de Chirico to postulate a surreal and magical city of the future.

		Report by Ivan Chtcheglov (alias Gilles Ivain), adopted by the Lettrist International, October 1953.
		The text was a badly needed shot in the arm for French Surrealism - increasingly bogged down in virtually conventional art and cultural rehabilitation since the end of the twenties.
		Chtcheglov’s central theme was that the city was itself a total work of art, the total work of real life so long sought for.

	NAR Features
		The SI's roots in urbanism and architecture are founded in Lettrist Ivan Chtcheglov's essay 'Formulary For A New Urbanism'.
		In it, he dreams of a city where 'the principle activity of the inhabitants will be the continuous 'derive'.(French: derivation) The concept of 'unitary urbanism' formed by the SI describes their experiments with attaining Chtcheglov’s new city; one that allow its inhabitants to fulfill their desires.
		In this theory, the 'derive' (drift) was one of the practices that the Situationists used, alongside with detourned collages of maps, and art installations.

		A provisional, reflexive text, evoking the unrehabilitated subject arousing its sympathy: the perpetually disquieting dematerialization, nearly fifty years ago, of Ivan Chtcheglov.
		Samuel Appelbaum is the author of three collections of poems: Saturn (1978), Judea Capta (Asylum Arts, 1995), and Chtcheglov (Asylum Arts, 1998).
		In 66 sections, Samuel Appelbaum gives voice to the little-known Russian situationist and author of the short but radically influential 'Formulary for a New Urbanism.' Chtcheglov was institutionalized for most of his life, but Appelbaum has intuited the 'floodplain of dreams' that no doubt would have constituted his perceptions.

	The situationists
		In 1953, Ivan Chtcheglov, then aged nineteen and using the pseudonym Gilles Ivain, wrote a short manifesto called Formula for a New City.
		Chtcheglov's central theme was that the city was itself the total work of art, the total work of real life so long sort for.
		Unfortunately, his own visions were to prove too much for Chtcheglov: he ended up in a lunatic asylum a few years later.

		The Chtcheglov essay (and SI theory in general) explicitly draws on that surrealist current.
		The Chtcheglov essay is here, from a good selection of online situationist texts, including several good introductions.

		Before Debord, another situationist, Ivan Chtcheglov had declared "It must be sought in the magical locales of fairy tales and surrealist writings: castles, endless walls, little forgotten bars, mammoth caverns, casino mirrors.
		The technique of the dérive is paralleled by the readers's drift through cyberspace using hypertext.
		The internet is thus an ideal medium for both the documenting of a psychogeographical project, whilst also opening up fresh multivalent navigable spaces to perpetuate the continuous drift called for by Chtcheglov in 1953.

		A canny and articulate lad from Salford (and later Factory's founder), Wilson was at Cambridge University in 1968, hanging about with students who, inspired by the collaboration of real-life workers and Les Enrages turning cars over on the streets of Paris, passed around such hip texts in the hope of starting a revolution.
		Chtcheglov, a madman who was once arrested for threatening to blow up the Eiffel Tower with a stick of dynamite because the lights on it kept him awake at night, gave the club a significant context and a starting point with these unwittingly prophetic words.
		And, in giving life to a Haçienda that Chtcheglov had contended would never be built, they succeeded in creating a space where the "experiments in behaviour" - central to the concept of unitary urbanism - would take place on a scale nobody could have predicted.

		Instead of being organized, designed and controlled by the needs and demands of commerce, industry, and the circulation of traffic, in short capitalism, unitary urbanism sought to make the city a free space, open for play and adventure.
		Ivan Chtcheglov developed an early proposal that later inspired many Situationist visions of cities.
		In his essay “Formulary for a New Urbanism” Chtcheglov imagined a city with a ‘Happy Quarter’, ‘Historical Quarter’, ‘Nobel and Tragic Quarter’ etc. Chtcheglov’s architecture was constructed out of labyrinths, covered passage ways, mazes, ramparts, and stairways which led nowhere.

	Roger Farr - "The Psychogeographical Novel" (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		The time produced by the mechanical clock, which we have identified as labour-time, or productive time, is temporarily overturned, or abandoned, allowing the reader, as Chtcheglov puts it, to “glimpse original conceptions of space” (14).
		Revelations, epiphanies, omens, and signs appear before his eyes, and the "condition of everyday," as Poe calls it, a condition characterized by ennui (here translated as "boredom"), is overturned and imbued with the marvelous and the uncanny.
		This overturning of the banality of everyday experience, we should stress, is linked to a reemergence of repressed historical time; this is what Chtcheglov means when he says that in the city, one “cannot take three steps without encountering ghosts bearing all the prestige of their legends.

		Chtcheglov fordert eine neue Architektur, der es möglich ist, die vorherrschenden Zeit- und Raumkonzeptionen zu transformieren, eine Architektur, die sowohl Wissen vermittelt als auch Handlungsmöglichkeiten bietet, eine modifizierbare, formbare Architektur, die sich je nach den Wünschen ihrer Bewohner teilweise und sogar vollständig wandelt:
		Die Bewohner dieses Reichs werden hauptsächlich, wie Chtcheglov erklärt, mit einem ständigen Umherschweifen (»dérive«) beschäftigt sein, das zu einer schonungslosen, gründlichen und taumelhaften Umweltentfremdung führt.
		Die Lettristen griffen Chtcheglovs Forderung nach einer eingehenden Untersuchung der Beziehungen zwischen Raum, Zeit und den Leidenschaften auf und unternahmen voller Inbrunst die affektive Stadtvermessung, die sie als »Psychogeographie« bezeichneten.
