calling all hauntologically-minded New Yorkers:
Sukhdev Sandhu, in collaboration with Mark Pilkington from Strange Attractor and designer Rob Carmichael, is staging a day-long event - A Cathode Ray Séance - in New York, on Saturday November 17th, to mark the work of the screenwriter, short story writer and ghost-fiction visionary Nigel Kneale. SS believes it is the first commemoration of Kneale's work in the USA. To mark the occasion a book-length collection of essays and a very limited-edition cassette of specially-composed musical pieces have been put together.
