An English Journey Re-Imagined. Iain Sinclair / Alan Moore / Shirley Collins / Susan Stenger / F. M. Einheit / Graham Dolphin

Authors and psycho-geographers Iain Sinclair and Alan Moore re-imagine J.B. Priestley’s timeless classic An English Journey and undertake their own journeys across England in a first time collaboration. The project starts at Faster Than Sound in Aldeburgh with a collaboration between Sinclair, Moore and song collector Shirley Collins, composer/musician Susan Stenger and F. M. Einheit and visual artist Graham Dolphin, to communicate a special journey through the Suffolk countryside.

An English Journey Re-Imagined brings together this esteemed collection of artists from across disciplines to collaborate on a highly distinctive project which will present a mapping of place in the here and now, electronic graffiti, folk music and unique writing styles intertwining with voices set in a haunted filmic soundscape.

Faster Than Sound is the first chapter in this imaginative, yet to be written book, with other chapters taking place at Newcastle’s AV festival and beyond.
