(WARNING: this is not an indiscriminate list, but the exemplary, the true goose chasers, the wild hunt saboteurs, wonders worth getting lost in.)

  • World Wide Wandering: e-drifting in Paris and London - In the Scottish Journal of Performance David Overend proposes e-drifting as a new form of cultural pathfinding for a contemporary city that is increasingly global, networked and integrated with virtual spaces. The primary methodology—wandering—is understood as a resistant practice that can inform and shape the ways in which we use and inhabit both urban and cyber spaces.
  • Middlesex County Council - not what you might think. The county is both an intimate friend and a threat. It is the sparkle of sunlight on red suburban rooftops on spring mornings. It is compressed decades of endless car journeys down the A406 North Circular - drivers farting languidly in their Ford Capris.

  • “Rios does not have a fixed place of work.  He is  flexible  enough  to  create  in  a  hotel  room,  in  the  street,  in  his  workshop,  in  front  of  a  computer;  his  studio  is  inside  himself  and  does  not  depend  on  four  walls.”

  • Philippe Petit's Sky Walk: Re-enactment  
    Documentation from a re-enactment of Philippe Petit's 1974 "sky walk" between the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center, an assignment devised and written by Misha Myers. Following this brief Katharina Walsh and Matthew Snmallwood 're-enact and transpose Petit's walk' not as a purely literal translation of the event but as a stimulus for a varied and layered interpretation. The brief asked for the identification of the specific details of the site (much like Petit's own meticulous drawings and plans), for notes on weather conditions, on changes in atmosphere, documentation of the walkers’ movements, 'unexpected incidents and/or coincidences'.
    The assignment was given as part of a site-specific theatre module at Dartington College of Arts lead by Misha Myers (2010).
