Brian LavelleI’m getting into the festive spirit: watching Iain Sinclair & Chris Petit’s 2002 film, London Orbital, with a nice glass of calvados.
J has tonsillitis* so it couldn’t get any more seasonal, really.
*and is therefore not watching London Orbital…
Max-auf-der-RaxWie merkwürdig, wie spannend, wie ambivalent, jedenfalls: Vielen herzlichen Dank für den Hinweis. Ich hatte keine Ahnung von der #Psychogeographie von #IainSinclair
und von der Geschichte Northamptons wusste ich eigentlich auch nichts. Also: Merci!

#LunchtimeReading : still enjoying some delightful lines by Iain Sinclair in his upcoming Pariah Genius.
"Fear and loathing through those four circles of Hell, the poetry performances and death by dinner party in the USA"
Iain Sinclair ruminating on Dylan Thomas in the US, in his upcoming Pariah Genius (pub April, Cheerio Publishing ). I'm especially fond of the "death by dinner party" line 😁

remotevoicesI may have posted this before, but it is on just now and has so much character. "Overground" by Standard Planets, a somewhat avant post rock/punk 3 track EP, with jaunty spoken word narration by Iain Sinclair, a dialogue inevitably on London snapshots.

Brian Lavelle has moved… pathways to Infinity and Oblivion: from Guy Dickinson’s stunning and mysterious topology of the spirit, Epistle Two: Cartographies (@tracing_silence), to the latest Iain Sinclair cabinet of furiosities, Agents of Oblivion, from Swan River Press. I’m looking forward to spending quite a bit of time getting lost in them.

Bobby Seal'Which brings me to the haunting complexity of London’s buried rivers. They’re not lost, not at all. Just because you can’t see a thing, as Ed Dorn points out, doesn’t mean that it’s not there. The rivers continue, hidden and culverted as they might be, to flow through our dreams, fixing the compass of our moods and movements.'
