Public Lecture: Friday 13 November 2009, 6:30PM to 8:00PM
Curated by Michelle Cotton
"A man found that when he went to the cinema he would suddenly feel an irresistible impulse to strangle the person next to him; he never did actually throttle anyone, but came to himself with his hands around his neighbour's throat. The impulse was not dependent on upon the subject of the film, but occurred most often if he moved his head suddenly while the film was on. When subjected to artificial flicker he developed violent jerking of the limbs when the flash rate was high — up to fifty per second — about the flicker rate of the cinema projector."
— William Grey Walter, 'The Living Brain' (1953)
The Source is a lecture on light, based on an essay written for Jahresring 55: Psychonauten Kunst in Ekstase / Art in Ecstasy (Veit Loers ed. Walter Koenig: Cologne, 2008).
Featuring work by artists Andreas Bunte, Mary Ellen Bute, Làszlò Moholy-Nagy, Paul Sharits, Mark Titchner and Jennifer West, with literature by Aldous Huxley, Robert Lynd, Lewis Mumford, John Ruskin and William Grey Walter.
Limited capacity, no booking required.
With kind assistance of LUX, Matt's Gallery, Royal College of Art, Loughborough University, University College London, and the Design and Artists Copyright Society.

How to Find Us

Cubitt is situated near the junction of City Road and Upper Street. Nearest tube station is Angel on the City Branch of the Northern Line, one stop from King's Cross. Angel can also be reached by bus routes 4, 19, 30, 38, 43, 56, 73, 153, 205, 214, 274, 341, 394 and 476 from Central London.
For detailed travel information visit Transport for London.
To get to Cubitt from Angel tube, turn left out of the station and then right into Pentonville Road past the Co-op bank on the corner. Then take the first right off of Pentonville Road - the turning looks more like a way through to the rear of two office blocks than an actual road - and at the end of this side turning, bear left. Cubitt is the building at the end with the large metal door.
