Written by Amanda David
By A Long Chalk is a guided walk originally written to accompany and celebrate a live performance of Longplayer at the Roundhouse.
The circular walk starts and ends at the Roundhouse in Chalk Farm. By A Long Chalk is an exploration of the environs and history of Chalk Farm and Primrose Hill, through the lens of ‘pace layers’, Stewart Brand’s model for the ever-interacting layers of civilisation.
It is a way of hearing the signal amidst the noise of London: and in this small quarter, making sense of steam trains and secret vaults, geology and gin, duels and druids, tunnels, taverns and towpaths.
