It is a collaboration of Vision Mongers, Environ Mentalists and Entertainers of Ideas, devoted to tuning up reality to the level of art. Their work includes stage shows, environments, dramatised lectures, street theatre, exhibition events, performance art, infiltrations (of social gatherings), encounter and video workshops, and printed publications, including broadsheets, pamphlets, and this, their first book.' (Publisher's blurb) This book of forewords has a stellar list of contributors, many of them at the beginning of their careers: Tom Stoppard, Quentin Crisp, Ivor Cutler, Hull Truck's Mike Bradwell, Terry Jones, Heathcote Williams, Adrian Mitchell and Genesis P-Orridge all contribute new forewords to sit alongside others drawn from earlier sources (Freud, Twain and Big Chief I-Spy among them).
