A time-travelling voyage through one city, assembled from hundreds of movie clips and inspired by the wanderings of Walter Benjamin.
Citation City, the new AV concert by People Like Us edits and ocllages over 300 features either filmed or set in Lond, to create the story of one city in a period of enormous change. Pieced together by audiovisual artist Vicki Bennett (aka People Like Us), this beguiling, labyrinthine work takes its cut from Benjamin's Arcades Project, an ambitious attempt to map out Paris in fragment, which was cut short by the author's death in 1940.
"The result is a sweeping panorama of London, a London as represented through cinema - not the real city at all, but one that exists in the collective imagination of movie goers throughout the decades."
