fl â neur
...Pero el arco de yeso,/
¡qué grande, qué invisible, qué diminuto!,/
sin esfuerzo./// "MUERTE"

Νομάδες
There have always been and will be nomads in society, who in some ways are similar to tourists.
They are also organized into communities, nomads
A nomad masters a certain territory, moves along routes from one point to another.

intermezzo
This movement, according to J. Deleuze and F. Guattari, takes place in connection with actual necessity,
it is full of accidents:
"The life of a nomad is an intermezzo, an improvisation."
A nomad is deprived of an established road, he moves in an undefined, incoherent "open space", and the road of tourists, on the contrary, is always a relatively closed space.
/
The nomad is deterritorialized, deprived
of a constant connection with the land, which becomes for him just a support under his feet.
Therefore, "the nomad gives birth to the desert" because he is "born by it".
tourist
This difference is due to the conscious desire to receive new experiences, a certain pleasure (tourism is the "other life" of an individual), as well as the presence of a constant point of reference in his traveling trajectories, which is his home
own home,
native land,
homeland.
A real tourist is significantly different from a nomadic wanderer.
Unlike tourist, the flâneur is deprived of the final point of his destination:
he is a stranger and homeless everywhere.
