I presented two pieces of work during the 2018 Bloomsbury Festival as part of a session on urban storytelling.

The first was a project where I visited every Tennyson Road in Greater London, in order to consider how unremarkable streetscapes can help us form clearer understandings of the contemporary city. There are nine spread quite equally across the city, and I chose them as I partially grew up on the similarly named Tennison Road (of which there is only one in the city).

The second was a poetic and performative live audio essay, detailing a walk I took along Holloway Road in London and the reflections of an everyday urban experience from an ‘after-dark’ perspective. How does the distinct ecology of the night illuminate different stories? You can listen to the soundscape that accompanied the story below or on Soundcloud.
