July First Sunday

It's First Sunday This Sunday (well, it isn't strictly speaking but we played with time shifting this month). We'll be meeting outside Home on Tony Wilson Place (!) at 1pm for a communal dérive of some sort. All welcome to drift around the city with us and it would be lovely to see you xx

PS I'm putting this here as a reminder to myself. This Summer I am finally going to sort out The LRM website

July First Sunday


Hello everyone

I hope you are enjoying the sunshine, as mentioned before July has played a time-shifting trip on us. First Sunday has been temporarily displaced to Sunday 12th July, details to be confirmed. My apologies for any disappointment or inconvenience but I hope to see you soon. In the meantime this looks ace: Manchester’s Improving Daily http://edwardthesecond.co.uk/

Also, from 2007 here are some instructions for a DIY derive, because wandering is for life, not just for First Sundays.

1 Stop what you're doing and tap your heels together. Spin around if you feel like it. (the LRM accept no liability for any accidents that may occur due to over zealous spinning so please take care).

2 Head off in whichever direction takes your fancy and wander at will until you want to stop.

3 As you traverse, aim to discover something new and marvellous and look for something you have never seen, felt or listened to before (we bet there will be something).

4 Repeat as desired at intervals through out the day or don't. If you think this is pointless you may be right. But we think it will be fun and we can create something beautiful from it.

6 If you do have an adventure please send us a few notes, observations, random words or pictures.

Take care and see you on the streets soon

Sheffield Psychogeography Action

Dear friends and colleagues
As promised, Sheffield Psychogeography Action will be back on the streets for a communal wander as our June event.
We'll be meeting 6pm Monday 22nd June in The Winter Gardens (if you haven't been before I'm short with pink hair so hopefully easy to spot). We'll be off on a metaphysical treasure hunt, one of my favourite games which I was reminded of during the Emotional Geographies conference last week in Edinburgh
I hope to see you soon, please don't hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions or comments.
Cheers
Morag

May 2015 First Sunday

It's betaine,  international workers day and Jane's walk weekend so lots to inspire us for our First Sunday derive. Plus I have aquired some delicious old maps. We will be starting 12 noon Sunday 3rd May at John Ryland Library Deansgate.  Please note the slightly earlier opening time as we don't want to get boring. It would be fabulous if you could join us.
Cheers
Morag

April First Sunday

First Sunday this Sunday! Hooray! Massive apologies for my tardy announcement, but we are of course meeting on Sunday regardless of other events happening. Expect wanderings around rebirth, April foolishness, springliness and perhaps the odd easter egg. We'll be meeting 2pm Piccadilly Gardens, Sunday 5th April, near the memorial tree, and ideas of where may be open when we finish would be welcome. Cant wait to see everyone who wants to come out and play. More details if you need them from loiter@hepzombie.co.uk
