Spotted by a friend in Time Out, I found out about the event below: Phil. Iain Sinclair’s M25 London Orbital Iain Sinclair’s latest book ‘London Orbital’ sets out to discover an area less fashionable than the streets and rivers of inner London: the previously uncharted stretch of urban settlement outside London bounded by the great circle of the M25. For this book Sinclair WALKED around the M25, unwinding time with his anti-clockwise odyssey, uncovering a history of forgotten villages, suburban utopias and the hellish asylums. Based on and inspired by Iain Sinclair’s ‘London Orbital’, this extraordinary performance brings together readings by Iain Sinclair, J.G.Ballard, Bill Drummond and Ken Campbell; Chris Petit’s specially shot and manipulated M25 film and new music performed live by WIRE, Scanner and Jimmy Cauty.
