Dancing in the streets

In most big cities, and even in many small towns, it is common to run into street musicians. I believe that these musicians create a sort of derive by making people move through space in a new way--whether that is dancing, running away, or slowing to observe. When I was in New York City the summer before last, my friends and I ran into a man playing the saxophone in Central Park. We stopped nearby and started dancing along to his playing and as we continued our walk we were still bopping along to his music behind us. His playing definitely changed the way we "drifted" through that part of the park.
