On the 15th May, Richard Layzell (http://www.rescen.net/routeplanner/) will explore the geo-historical landscape of a part of North London, which used to be a holiday destination for Central Londoners in Victorian times. Meet 4pm at the exit to Manor House tube station (Picadilly Line).
1st email with walking plan:
I ... decided to make it a local walk and that we will trace the New River partly by walking up and down a parallel series of streets called The Ladder, each street crosses the river and there are about 12 of them. The New River was built in 1613 to bring fresh water to London:

I’m planning to walk at 4pm because at this time we’ll also hear the roars of sound from the Arsenal soccer stadium a mile away.
most recent email:
...might be just me and (Rosalie). Really like the idea of texting..... Looking forward.
Lily writing this: Yes, we're going to try texting from our very smart phones along the way while we walk. No idea if this continent to continent texting will work, so thinking about it as---new adventures with our smart phones. (And we'll see if they really are that smart!)

The tiny mob is us: Richard, Elspeth, me, & all the other artists from Winter School: Kaite, Jeremy, Christina, Jane, Alicia, and Julia, at the end of long day walking Glasgow. We were collaborating as we scouted for sites and inspiration for upcoming performance art works. Winter School w/artist Richard Layzell Mar2011. |
