Concrete Atlantis Present: The Megalithic Imperative- A Journey to the Centre of the Earth Mysteries, with Neil Mortimer editor of 3rd Stone magazine in conversation with Patrcia Brien & Urthona in live performance
Poster: Andrew Ciccone
Doors 2pm
Tickets: £10
Join us to celebrate the publication of The Megalithic Imperative: A 3rd Stone Anthology, a book that contains a decade of cutting edge writing about archaeology, earth mysteries, folklore, and myth in our ancient landscapes.
Occupying those resonant spaces where archaeology meets folklore and myth, 3rd Stone was from 1994 to 2003 the United Kingdom’s most exciting journal for exploring Europe’s ancient past. Here researchers from a wide range of backgrounds, practices and disciplines could exchange knowledge and critique ideas. Established academics and celebrated authors mingled with independent scholars, mystics, and Neo-pagans, all with the common goal of understanding the way our ancient ancestors thought, lived and built in our shared landscapes.
Join editor Neil Mortimer in conversation with the artist-curator Patrica Brien as he looks back on his journey to the centre of the earth's mysteries and beyond.
Followed by live music from Urthona
Southwest England’s underground legends Urthona features Neil Mortimer on guitar, joined by long-time collaborator Mark O Pilkington on electronics. This session will feature the duo playing music from Urthona's Forever People series, an ongoing imagining of what it might sound like if Flying Saucer Attack and Laraaji made an album together.
Hosted by Stonecirclesampler and Travis Elborough
