John Foxx & Iain Sinclair in Conversation

John Foxx

*** EVENT from 2009 ***
This discussion follows the multimedia event The Quiet Man and brings together Foxx and acclaimed author, Iain Sinclair to explore its conceptual issues. No other contemporary British writer has made the city the central subject of their work more than Sinclair. Considered the godfather of modern psychogeographers, his most notable work is London Orbital: A Walk Around the M25. Sinclair and Foxx share a fascination with the city, and the powerful effect places can have on our perceptions of ourselves. They discuss Foxx's notion that our accumulated experiences and memories evolve over time into a personal map, giving meaning to life in an alien city.
