Walk the Line with Iain Sinclair
Leaving his familiar London surroundings for a sojourn in Manchester, the writer and psychogeographer Iain Sinclair has penned a walk through the city. This is less Manchester Orbital and more Manchester Diagonal as Sinclair cuts a path from Urbis and the Cathedral to Northenden via Deansgate, Castlefield, Old Trafford and the Mersey.
The walk, as read by Swen Steinhauser, is available as a podcast to download from the Urbis website or by borrowing an MP3 player from the Urbis information desk. The latter includes a set of pencil crayons for children (or adults) to colour in the accompanying map.
The podcast was kindly provided by Corridor 8 magazine who will be launching their first issue on July 16th, 2009.
