#projectLOCI is something myself and Greg Taylor at Daily Grail have been working on for seven months now.
It’s a collection of writings by twelve incredible authors: Bryndís Björgvinsdóttir – Vajra Chandrasekera – Maria J. Pérez Cuervo – Warren Ellis – Alan Moore – Silvia Moreno-Garcia – Kristine Ong Muslim – Dr. Joanne Parker – Mark Pesce – Iain Sinclair – Gazelle Amber Valentine – Damien Williams.
It’s edited, curated, and introduced by me.
It’s a book about place and our relationship to it; how ideas and stories and events become embedded into locations. And how people interact with those places; how they change the way we look at and think about ourselves and others.
Pye Parr has done us an amazing cover, which you can see a fraction of above. More of that, and the book’s actual title, will be revealed in the next fortnight or so when it goes on sale.
Keep an eye out here, and on dailygrail.com, and prepare to get very excited.
What’s this? Oh just a brand new Alan Moore essay on ‘spirits of place’ that you’ll want to read… #soon #ProjectLoci #spiritsofplace pic.twitter.com/mnoyo1ydVK
