MysticWicks endorsement: "I've always, always regarded the Discordians as being people who chose to be Discordians because they can't be arsed to actually do any work to develop a relationship with a specific deity, they were too wishy-washy to choose just one path, and they just want to be a mishmash of everything and not have to work at learning about rituals or traditions or any such thing as that."

Psychogeography and derive are two different things, and I doubt you could come up with a word that would combine them BOTH to Discordianism.

However, in a very real way I think one will lead to the other and vice versa, and both are necessary for Discordianism.

Unitary Urbanism is the name that combines them, from the Situationists which could be seen as pioneers of psychogeography and the derive.  Making up a new name might not be necessary, though I'd suggest something about urban exploration, interpretation and manipulation of the urban atmosphere (via meme bombs and/or other approach).
towards the abolition of work!
