Iain Sinclair & Guests
Tuesday 28 June at 8pm The Vortex Jazz Club Gillett Street N16 8JN
As part of the Vortex Wordplay series Iain Sinclair will be reading from his new book “Ghost Milk” discussing matters raised in this and other books and answering audience questions.
“Ghost milk”. What does this mean?
“CGI smears on the blue fence” Sinclair replies. “Real juice from a virtual host. Embalming fluid. A soup of photographic negatives. Soul food for the dead. The universal element in which we sink and swim”
“A wonderful kind of alchemy is at work” J G Ballard observed in Sinclair’s writing. The Sunday Times described his work as “remarkable compelling bristles with unexpected frequently lurid life”.
The evening will also feature music from the Dulce Tones – the musicians who performed at OPEN Dalston’s St Barnabas event last September.
You can buy tickets here for £5 in advance
