Crossing Lines: January meetup: New Academic Building Room 3.26: 6 – 8 pm: Wednesday 4th January 2012
This meetup is close on the heels of The Long Lay Off so … if it just this moment strikes you that there’s an idea that would suit a reasonably open agenda then please mail me & we’ll find space for you.
Meanwhile, these are the confirmed presentations for this session.
Len Salem attended the CUCR Symposium City to Sea earlier this year and then took part in the workshops (day trips to the seaside) that followed.
The result was London’s Seasides – Aspects of Regeneration. Seasides as The New Urbanism—get in at the beginning!

Having taught art & design, Ganda writes: “I got into photography via a printmaking degree & started building table top sets, constructed photographs & worked with a few poems by Jorge Luis Borges.” Ganda has been documenting the history of Kings Cross, Battlebridge, Archway; creating images based upon entertainment around Holloway; making inspired by Ed Ruscha; exhibiting in Slovenia, Berlin & Bristol.
