http://residual-noise.blogspot.com/p/road-movies.html
The best and most exciting films are, beginning with Melies and Fantomas, the films shown in local fleapits, films which seem to have no place in the history of cinema. Ado Kyrou, Le surréalisme au cinéma. Driving twins with cinema, another form of projection. Chris Petit, ‘Germany and England / England and Germany’ (2008). Robert Taber, The War of the Flea. In 2003 I started a sort-of film-club on the campus of Lancaster University. Using the name. In 2005 I took the project out on the road for a series...

http://residual-noise.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
In May I'll be taking part in An English Trip, John Doran's. Backed tour to coincide with the publication of his book A Jolly Lad. I'll be doing a spoken-word set with Evie Salmon. Based on a road trip to Bradford. It'll be a mix of material from Road Movies. And The Bad Trip. Part travelogue, part spurious celebration of cult film. A psychogeographic mash-up of half-remembered anecdotes and true-crime paperbacks. Who will also be performing. Very excited to be part of this. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

I'm happy to report that last week's symposium, The Alchemical Landscape. Was a great success. My thanks to all the great speakers who participated and to everyone who came on the day. We had a sell-out crowd and lots of interest which was very encouraging. Obviously there's lots and lots to process but two focal themes that carried resonance for me were: the semiotic. Implications of imaginal practice and the theoretical. Overlap between projection and mediation. 2012) I think further lines of investiga...
