Absorbed in occultism and sorcery, voyaging into inner dimensions and surrounding himself with cats and familiar spirits, he continued to produce extraordinary art while developing a magical philosophy of pleasure, obsession, and the subjective nature of reality.\r\n\r\nToday Spare is both forgotten and famous, a cult figure whose modest life has been much mythologised since his death. This groundbreaking biographical study offers wide-ranging insights into Spare’s art, mind and world, reconnecting him with the art history that ignored him and exploring his parallel London; a bygone place of pub pianists, wealthy alchemists and monstrous owls.\r\n\r\nThis richly readable and illuminating biography takes us deep into the strange inner world that this most enigmatic of artists inhabited, shedding new light while allowing just a few shadowy corners to flourish unspoiled.\r\n\r\n<strong>About the author</strong>\r\n\r\nPhil Baker’s other books include <em>The Dedalus Book of Absinthe</em>, a biography of Dennis Wheatley, <em>The Devil is a Gentleman</em>, and critical works on Samuel Beckett and William Burroughs. He lives in London.\r\n\r\n<strong style=\"font-family: Georgia, \'Bitstream Charter\', serif; color: #000000; line-height: 1.5; font-weight: bold;\">Reviews</strong>\r\n\r\n\"[told with] zest and insight...

Ken Hollings depicts an unsettled time in which the layout of Suburbia reflected atomic bombing strategies, bankers and movie stars experimented with hallucinogens, brainwashing was just another form of interior decoration and strange lights in the sky were taken very seriously indeed<em>.</em>\r\n<blockquote>Welcome to Mars is a map of the post-war Zone, a non-fiction Gravity’s Rainbow that follows the arc of Germany’s V2 rocket to the end of the rainbow – to America.  <span style=\"font-style: normal;\">Erik Davis</span></blockquote>\r\nSeamlessly interweaving developments in technology, popular culture, politics, changes in home life, the development of the self, collective fantasy and overwhelming paranoia, Hollings has produced an alarming and often hysterically funny vision of the past that would ultimately govern all of our futures.\r\n<blockquote>Ken Hollings shows brilliantly how the extraordinary web of technologies that drove the Cold War have shaped not just our culture but the very way we think of ourselves as human beings. Welcome to Mars offers a rare and fascinating glimpse of the roots of the strange humanoid culture we live in today.\r\n<span style=\"font-style: normal;\">Adam Curtis</span></blockquote>\r\nAll orders of the book will receive a free hour-long CD of classy analogue Outer Space exotica by Simon James, while stocks last.\r\n\r\n<strong>Buy for Kindle on <a href=\"http://rcm-uk.amazon.co.uk/e/cm?lt1=_blank&amp;bc1=000000&amp;IS2=1&amp;bg1=FFFFFF&amp;fc1=000000&amp;lc1=0000FF&amp;t=stranattra-21&amp;o=2&amp;p=8&amp;l=as4&amp;m=amazon&amp;f=ifr&amp;ref=ss_til&amp;asins=B0067MDIWC\">Amazon UK</a> or <a href=\"http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0067MDIWC/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=mirmen-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=217145&amp;creative=399373&amp;creativeASIN=B0067MDIWC\">Amazon USA</a></strong>','Welcome to Mars','by Ken Hollings\r\nPB, 312pp, illus, index, £9.99 (was £11.99)\r\nISBN: 978-0954805487','inherit','closed','closed','','2121-revision-v1','','','2013-06-07 14:43:32','2013-06-07 14:43:32','',2121,'http://strangeattractor.co.uk/news/2121-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(5644,2,'2016-05-23 11:50:23','2016-05-23 11:50:23','<h3><strong><a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/the-influencing-machine/\"><img class=\"size-medium wp-image-4171 alignright\" title=\"IMcover_23april\" src=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/IMcover_23april-211x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"211\" height=\"300\" /></a>by Mike Jay</strong>\r\n<strong> £12.99, PB, A5, 288pp</strong>\r\n<strong> ISBN: 9781907222139</strong></h3>\r\n<a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/the-influencing-machine/\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>BUY HERE</strong></span></a>\r\n<blockquote>\'\'One of the greatest books you\'ve never read\' William Gibson\r\n\r\n<em>A revised and updated edition of this weird science classic.</em>\r\n\r\nDownload the <a href=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/IM_PR.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">press release</a></blockquote>\r\nIt’s <em>The Manchurian Candidate</em> for the eighteenth century…an exhilarating cloak-and-dagger narrative.’ <em>Guardian</em>\r\n\r\n\'Beautifully written, with all the drama, the rich characterization, the subtlety, of a fine novel.\' <em>Oliver Sacks</em>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">***</p>\r\n\r\n<div>\r\n\r\nConfined in Bedlam in 1797 as an incurable lunatic, James Tilly Matthews’ case is one of the most bizarre in the annals of psychiatry.

Incredibly, bootleggers built homemade recording machines and found an extraordinary way to copy banned gramophone records – they used X-Rays clandestinely obtained from hospitals.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/shoppe/x-ray-audio-book/attachment/xrayflexi/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-5414\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-5414\" src=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/xrayflexi.jpg\" alt=\"xrayflexi\" width=\"329\" height=\"302\" /></a>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><i>X-Ray Audio: The Strange Story of Soviet Music on the Bone</i> tells the secret history of these ghostly records and of the people who made, bought and sold them.  Lavishly illustrated with images of discs collected in Russia, it is a unique story of forbidden culture, bootleg technology and human endeavour.

Between them they present a comprehensive overview of Hofmann\'s relationship to his controversial creation, and reveal his profound mystical outlook, informed both by his own LSD experiences, and by a life lived through one of the most turbulent centuries in human history.\r\n\r\n<strong> </strong>\r\n\r\nThe second section of the book contains essays and memoirs from some of the leading psychedelic thinkers of the 20th and 21st centuries, including Huston Smith, Myron Stolaroff, Ralph Metzner, Jonathan Ott, Stanislav Grof and Amanda Feilding.\r\n\r\n<em>The book is illustrated throughout with many rare photographs from the Hofmann archives.</em>\r\n\r\n<em>Hofmann\'s Elixir</em> is at once an important cultural and historical document, and a rare glimpse inside a visionary mind.\r\n\r\n<strong>Buy it from <a href=\"http://www.beckleyfoundation.org/hoffmanns-elixir-lsd-and-the-new-eleusis/\" target=\"_blank\">The Beckley Foundation</a></strong>','Hofmann\'s Elixir','Edited by Amanda Feilding\r\nPB, 176pp, £14.99 \r\nISBN 780-954 805494','inherit','closed','closed','','2973-revision-v1','','','2011-01-27 17:41:49','2011-01-27 17:41:49','',2973,'http://strangeattractor.co.uk/news/2973-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(5656,2,'2016-06-27 11:00:42','2016-06-27 11:00:42','Strange Attractor Press are over the rainbow to present...\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/skipping-to-armageddon/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-5657\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5657\" src=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/STA-WEB.gif\" alt=\"STA-WEB\" width=\"585\" height=\"800\" /></a>\r\n<h2><strong>Skipping To Armageddon:</strong></h2>\r\n<h2><strong>Photographs of Current 93 and Friends </strong></h2>\r\n<h3><strong>by Ruth Bayer</strong></h3>\r\n<strong>With an introduction by Michel Faber, and a Foreword by David Tibet</strong>\r\n\r\n<strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/skipping-to-armageddon/\">AVAILABLE TO ORDER HERE </a></span></strong>\r\n\r\nHardback\r\n192pp, 220x170mm\r\n120+ images in colour and B/W\r\nAvailable from mid-August in two editions, only from Strange Attractor Press\r\n\r\n* £25.00 standard hardback edition\r\n\r\n<del>* £35.00 collectors’ signed edition of 50, with photographic print signed by Ruth and David </del><strong>SOLD OUT</strong>\r\n\r\n\"Like much of the music made by the artists who entrusted her to reflect their mercurial spirits, Bayer\'s pictures are magic\"\r\nFrom the introduction by Michel Faber\r\n\r\nBringing together, for the first time, the music photography of Ruth Bayer, who has documented key players in the English musical post-punk underground since the mid 1980s.\r\n\r\nWith unprecedented access and intimacy, Ruth has photographed luminaries and legends including Marc Almond, Little Annie, John Balance, Peter Christopherson, Cyclobe, Shirley Collins, Baby Dee, Norbert Kox, Tony (TS) McPhee, Steven Stapleton, David Tibet, Tiny Tim and many others, in a career spanning three decades.\r\n\r\nA unique collection, featuring over one hundred timeless and iconic images of some of the most influential, eccentric and sometimes controversial musicians of their times.\r\n\r\nABOUT THE AUTHOR:\r\nRuth Bayer is an Austrian photographer, based in London, whose work has been exhibited at galleries all over the world.

Gossamer Days explores the strange web of spider-human relationships.\r\n\r\nFrom gun sights to sticky tunics via acoustic lures, royal underwear and the mystery of the disappearing spider goats, Eleanor Morgan’s intriguing and original book examines the strange, centuries long entanglement between humans and spiders.\r\n\r\nArtist and writer Eleanor Morgan has spent a decade working with spiders and their silk.

They are, what’s more, exceptionally handsome books\" - Michael Dirda, <em>The Washington Post</em>, 2 July 2015\r\n\r\n<em>A handsome young publisher who spent weeks every year gambling in Monte Carlo casinos.</em>\r\n\r\nA Catholic monsignor who told fireside ghost stories to undergraduates. A shabbily-dressed bookseller who lived in a garden hovel.\r\n\r\nA group of university librarians who specialised in arcane literature and erotica. <em>A biographer who spent lavishly the subscriptions of his fellow club members. </em><em>A collector whose single-mindedness finally overwhelmed him.</em><em>\r\n</em>\r\n\r\nWhat all these men had in common was an unshakeable obsession with the life and work of the English writer Frederick Rolfe, better known under his pseudonym ‘Baron Corvo,’ who led a startlingly eventful life, outraged Edwardian London and Venice, and bequeathed to posterity a cluster of lively and compelling novels and short stories.\r\n\r\nCorvo himself had no doubt that he was destined for celebrity.  ‘Everything that relates to me,’ he proudly wrote, ‘will be of interest some day,’ and over the course of the century since his death, this unlikely prediction came true, albeit not quite in the way he expected.  Universal fame eluded him, but his memory was kept alive by a tiny and obsessive band of enthusiasts, adherents of the Corvo cult, who collected his books, competed for his relics and memorabilia, and championed his place in literature.\r\n\r\nThis book recounts the history of one of the twentieth century’s most resilient literary cults. Biographies sometimes make tangential mention of posthumous reputations, but this is the first time that the trajectory of one particular literary cult has been described with such completeness.\r\n\r\nCorvo scholar Robert Scoble has tracked down the cultists’ letters and notes, piecing together their associations and interactions, and illuminating in unprecedented detail the unlikely story of the Corvo cult’s growth and ultimate prosperity.\r\n\r\n<em><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Author Robert Scoble is always interested to hear from his readers.  His email address is </span><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><span style=\"line-height: 27px;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">robscob[at]outlook.com</span></span></span></em>\r\n\r\n<form action=\"https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr\" method=\"post\" target=\"paypal\">\r\n<h3><input name=\"cmd\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"_s-xclick\" /></h3>\r\n<h3><input name=\"hosted_button_id\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"XXAED2MW22NM4\" /></h3>\r\n<table>\r\n<tbody>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>\r\n<h3><input name=\"on0\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"Postal Region\" />Postal Region</h3>\r\n</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>\r\n<h3><select name=\"os0\">\r\n<option value=\"UK\">UK £25.00 GBP</option>\r\n<option value=\"EU AIR\">EU AIR £30.00 GBP</option>\r\n<option value=\"ROW AIR\">ROW AIR £35.00 GBP</option>\r\n</select></h3>\r\n</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n</tbody>\r\n</table>\r\n<h3><input name=\"currency_code\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"GBP\" />\r\n<input alt=\"PayPal – The safer, easier way to pay online.\" name=\"submit\" src=\"https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_GB/i/btn/btn_cart_LG.gif\" type=\"image\" />\r\n<img style=\"display: none !important; visibility: hidden !important; opacity: 0 !important; background-position: 0px 0px;\" src=\"https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_GB/i/scr/pixel.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"0\" height=\"0\" border=\"0\" /></h3>\r\n</form>','The Corvo Cult','Robert Scoble\r\n480pp, 210mm x 148mm\r\nLimited edition HB, £25','inherit','closed','closed','','5014-revision-v1','','','2016-07-18 11:42:37','2016-07-18 11:42:37','',5014,'http://strangeattractor.co.uk/news/5014-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(5745,2,'2017-04-05 11:54:23','2017-04-05 11:54:23','<a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/gossamer-days/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-5685\"><img class=\"alignnone wp-image-5685\" src=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/gossamer-announcement.png\" alt=\"gossamer-announcement\" width=\"487\" height=\"696\" /></a>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Gossamer Days</strong></h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em><strong>Spiders, Humans and Their Threads</strong></em></h2>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>by Eleanor Morgan</strong></h3>\n<a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/gossamer-days/\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Available now</span></a>\n\nA5, 184pp\nHeavily illustrated in BW &amp; Colour\n£25/£14.99\n\nAvailable in two editions:\n<ul>\n 	<li>Special Edition Hardback, 250 copies,  with a signed and numbered artist\'s print (£25.00)</li>\n 	<li>Standard Paperback Edition</li>\n</ul>\n<img class=\"wp-image-5772 aligncenter\" src=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/book1_567.jpg\" alt=\"book1_567\" width=\"478\" height=\"364\" />\n\n\"We don’t just think; we think like humans.

Gossamer Days explores the strange web of spider-human relationships.\r\n\r\nFrom gun sights to sticky tunics via acoustic lures, royal underwear and the mystery of the disappearing spider goats, Eleanor Morgan’s intriguing and original book examines the strange, centuries long entanglement between humans and spiders.\r\n\r\nArtist and writer Eleanor Morgan has spent a decade working with spiders and their silk. Her explorations have led her in search of one of the world’s largest web weaving spiders, to the rooftops of Oxford University and to a garage in Sussex.\r\n\r\nHer weaving and drawing with spider silk drew her to research the lost history of Europe’s attempt to create a spider silk weaving industry and to the ancient and ongoing sacred use of spider webs in the South Pacific.

Gossamer Days explores the strange web of spider-human relationships.\r\n\r\nFrom gun sights to sticky tunics via acoustic lures, royal underwear and the mystery of the disappearing spider goats, Eleanor Morgan’s intriguing and original book examines the strange, centuries long entanglement between humans and spiders.\r\n\r\nArtist and writer Eleanor Morgan has spent a decade working with spiders and their silk. Her explorations have led her in search of one of the world’s largest web weaving spiders, to the rooftops of Oxford University and to a garage in Sussex.\r\n\r\nHer weaving and drawing with spider silk drew her to research the lost history of Europe’s attempt to create a spider silk weaving industry and to the ancient and ongoing sacred use of spider webs in the South Pacific. Legends of schoolgirls tempting spiders with their singing inspired her own attempt to serenade a spider.\r\n\r\nIn this personal, lively and far ranging book, Eleanor Morgan transforms the way we think about spiders and the wonders of their webs.\r\n\r\nAbout the author:\r\nEleanor Morgan is a London-based artist, lecturer and writer specialising in the making processes of humans and other animals. She holds a PhD from the Slade School of Fine Art and has exhibited nationally and internationally at galleries and museums.','Gossamer Days','A5, 184pp\r\nHeavily illustrated in BW & Colour\r\n£25/£14.99\r\n','inherit','closed','closed','','5684-revision-v1','','','2016-09-20 10:06:14','2016-09-20 10:06:14','',5684,'http://strangeattractor.co.uk/news/5684-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(5780,2,'2017-01-23 15:16:14','2017-01-23 15:16:14','<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/of-shadows-one-hundred-objects-f/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-5664\"><img class=\"wp-image-5664 alignnone\" src=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/OS-WEB-2.gif\" alt=\"OS-WEB-2\" width=\"520\" height=\"544\" /></a></p>\n\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Of Shadows</strong></h2>\n<em><strong>One Hundred Objects from The Museum of Witchcraft and Magic</strong></em>\n\n<strong>By Sarah Hannant and Simon Costin </strong>\n\n225 x 225 mm, 240pp\nOver 120 images in colour &amp; BW.\nAvailable in pb, limited hb and<del> Special editions.</del>\n£25/£35/<del>£50</del>\n\nOne hundred objects, exuding magic and mystery, emerge from the darkness of Cornwall’s much-loved Museum of Witchcraft and Magic in this book of haunting photographs.\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Artist and photographer Sara Hannant has captured the very essence of these carefully-selected artifacts, including wax dolls, wands, statues, daggers, pendants, robes and amulets.

There are accounts of ketamine clinics, dreaming, days spent in total darkness, and the effects of a room devoid of sound, alongside essays on the poetry of Allen Ginsberg, William Blake and William Wordsworth, the hi-story of metaphorical speaking, and the way poetic speech changes consciousness. Further chapters cover the shadow side of ayahuasca retreats, the useful role of ceremonial practice, psychedelics and end of life therapy, and the concept of the imaginal in thinking about psychedelic experience.\r\n\r\n<strong>Contributors:</strong>\r\nTim Harwick • Matthew Clark • Christopher Letheby Lindsay Jordan • Nadia VE • Niklas Serning Oli Genn-Bash • Ellie Lee and Nina Lyon Luke Goaman-Dodson • Michael Montague Tharcila Chaves • Josie Malinowski et al • Regina Hess David Luke et al • George Erving • Luke Walker Sam Knot • Eric Maddern • Elizabeth Joyce\r\nJulian Vayne • Sam Gandy • William Rowlandson\r\n\r\n</div>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n</div>\r\n</div>','Breaking Convention IV: Psychedelicacies','More Food For Thought From Breaking Convention','publish','closed','closed','','breaking-convention-iv-psychedelicacies','','','2022-01-13 13:40:53','2022-01-13 13:40:53','',0,'http://strangeattractor.co.uk/?p=6344',0,'post','',0),(5826,2,'2016-12-05 12:33:07','2016-12-05 12:33:07','<a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/gef/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-5798\"><img class=\"alignnone wp-image-5798\" src=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Gef-cover-mock-up-and-title.jpg\" alt=\"gef-cover-mock-up-and-title\" width=\"474\" height=\"747\" /></a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/gef/\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">CLICK HERE TO PRE-ORDER FROM OUR WEBSHOP</span></a>\r\n\r\n(Shipping mid-January [sorry for the delay!])\r\n\r\nBy Christopher Josiffe\r\nHB Special and Standard PB editions\r\n£25.00 / £15.99\r\n\r\nBlack and white  illustrations throughout\r\nISBN 978-1-907222-48-1\r\n210 x 148mm, 456pp\r\n\r\n<em>\"I am the fifth dimension!

In search of this lost time, she uncovers the memory of an encounter with aliens and, worse, an event from her childhood in Ireland which she finally redeems in the underworld of an IRA-infested pub…\r\n\r\nHer husband Alistair has his own nightmare: preparations for the visit of an African bishop and his entourage for a Christian conference, whose left-wing agenda is threatened by the attendance of a famous and mysterious nun…\r\n\r\nWhilst Heather’s sighting comes as a revelation that leads her, like a Grail knight’s quest, through strange ordeals, from membership of a menacing cult to an alternate reality; from a mental hospital to, finally, an encounter with her own hidden depths.\r\n\r\nA companion volume to the author’s critically lauded <em>Daimonic Reality</em>, a classic non-fiction study of otherworld journeys, <em>The Good People</em> is a modern fairy tale that dramatises with pace and wit the interpenetration of revelation and delusion, the natural and the supernatural, worldliness and sanctity - intimating that all our humdrum lives are shadowed by the alien dimension of myth.\r\n\r\nAbout the author:\r\n\r\nPatrick Harpur is the author of <em>Mercurius; or, the Marriage of Heaven and Earth</em>, a study of alchemy; <em>The Philosophers\' Secret Fire: A History of the Imagination</em> outlining an esoteric Western way of seeing the world which has been largely forgotten; and the rather ambitiously titled <em>A Complete Guide to the Soul</em>. He has also published three novels: <em>The Serpent’s Circle</em>, <em>The Rapture</em> and, most recently, a highly-autobiographical black comedy called <em>The Savoy Truffle</em>.','The Good People','By Patrick Harpur, HB & PB editions, 256pp, Cover by Leon Sadler, £25.00 / £12.99\r\n\r\n\r\n','inherit','closed','closed','','5810-revision-v1','','','2016-12-05 15:47:20','2016-12-05 15:47:20','',5810,'http://strangeattractor.co.uk/news/5810-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(5829,2,'2017-01-09 12:44:47','2017-01-09 12:44:47','<a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/gef/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-5798\"><img class=\"alignnone wp-image-5798\" src=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Gef-cover-mock-up-and-title.jpg\" alt=\"gef-cover-mock-up-and-title\" width=\"474\" height=\"747\" /></a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/gef/\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">CLICK HERE TO PRE-ORDER FROM OUR WEBSHOP</span></a>\r\n\r\n(Shipping Spring)\r\n\r\nBy Christopher Josiffe\r\nHB Special and Standard PB editions\r\n£25.00 / £15.99\r\n\r\nBlack and white  illustrations throughout\r\nISBN 978-1-907222-48-1\r\n210 x 148mm, 456pp\r\n\r\n<em>\"I am the fifth dimension!

Gossamer Days explores the strange web of spider-human relationships.\r\n\r\nFrom gun sights to sticky tunics via acoustic lures, royal underwear and the mystery of the disappearing spider goats, Eleanor Morgan’s intriguing and original book examines the strange, centuries long entanglement between humans and spiders.\r\n\r\nArtist and writer Eleanor Morgan has spent a decade working with spiders and their silk. Her explorations have led her in search of one of the world’s largest web weaving spiders, to the rooftops of Oxford University and to a garage in Sussex.\r\n\r\nHer weaving and drawing with spider silk drew her to research the lost history of Europe’s attempt to create a spider silk weaving industry and to the ancient and ongoing sacred use of spider webs in the South Pacific. Legends of schoolgirls tempting spiders with their singing inspired her own attempt to serenade a spider.\r\n\r\nIn this personal, lively and far ranging book, Eleanor Morgan transforms the way we think about spiders and the wonders of their webs.\r\n\r\nAbout the author:\r\nEleanor Morgan is a London-based artist, lecturer and writer specialising in the making processes of humans and other animals. She holds a PhD from the Slade School of Fine Art and has exhibited nationally and internationally at galleries and museums.','Gossamer Days','A5, 184pp\r\nHeavily illustrated in BW & Colour\r\n£25/£14.99\r\n','inherit','closed','closed','','5684-revision-v1','','','2017-02-23 11:24:51','2017-02-23 11:24:51','',5684,'http://strangeattractor.co.uk/news/5684-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6065,2,'2018-01-04 08:14:17','2018-01-04 08:14:17','<em>We welcome proposals and manuscript submissions but please read these guidelines before contacting us:</em>\r\n\r\n<strong>What you should know about us:</strong>\r\n\r\n- Before sending us your proposal or manuscript, if you are not familiar with our existing titles, please take a few minutes to <a href=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/shoppe/\">browse our existing list</a> and consider how your work might, or might not, sit alongside our already published books.\r\n\r\n- We don’t deal with agents. If you are an author, please contact us directly. Publishing your book will be a collaborative process - we want to work with you, and not an intermediary.\r\n\r\n- We are predominantly a non-fiction publisher, our key interests being previously neglected or rejected areas of research and investigation. Ideally your research will be breaking new ground, or presenting new perspectives on a story that has been told previously. We look for books that present their author’s depth of research through engaging and accessible writing. We are not an academic publishing house, though we are <a href=\"https://mitpress.mit.edu/books/catalogs\">distributed via MIT Press</a>, but we do expect your research to be credible, backed up by evidence and fully referenced.\r\n\r\n- While we are not really a fiction publisher, we have published a handful of novels and short fiction anthologies and shall continue to do so. Broadly speaking we are interested in fiction that sits uneasily alongside other strange tales of science fiction, fantasy or the supernatural.\r\n\r\n- Please do not send us your poetry. We are not a poetry press, though we have published poetry as part of archival collections.\r\n\r\n<strong>What to send us</strong>\r\n\r\n- First of all, please send us a brief summary, about 800 words long, of what you have written, or intend to write. A separate breakdown of chapters is useful if you have one. We can then decide whether we want to see your completed manuscript, or discuss a commission with you. Finished manuscripts will be read by us and our readers for assessment.\r\n\r\n<strong>What else you should know before approaching us</strong>\r\n\r\n- Please do not expect an advance. We do, however, offer authors a very generous share of profits. We will also produce your book to the highest standards possible, and it will be distributed worldwide via <a href=\"https://mitpress.mit.edu/books/catalogs\">MIT Press</a>. We are a small independent press and unfortunately are unable to pay authors in advance, except in very rare instances, for example if we know for certain that we can presell a specific number of copies of a title.\r\n\r\n- We usually publish in paperback, though we sometimes also produce short hardback runs, either independently or as part of the edition.\r\n\r\n- Once your book is written and all other materials - such as illustrations - are in place, it will take six months to a year for a book to be published, though the process can sometimes be shorter, or longer, determined by our own production schedule and distributor\'s catalogue schedule.\r\n\r\n<em>While the above may sound daunting, please don’t be put off - we want to hear from you. </em>\r\n\r\n<em>Join us!</em>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;','Submission Guidelines','','inherit','closed','closed','','6061-revision-v1','','','2018-01-04 08:14:17','2018-01-04 08:14:17','',6061,'http://strangeattractor.co.uk/news/6061-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6066,2,'2018-01-04 08:19:47','2018-01-04 08:19:47','<h2>Snail Mail</h2>\r\nBM SAP, WC1N 3XX, London, UK\r\n<h2>Email</h2>\r\n<strong>Hello:</strong>\r\nFor general contact and enquiries please email <b>contactee[at]strangeattractor.co.uk</b>\r\n\r\n<strong>Online orders:</strong>\r\nFor enquiries about orders and deliveries please email <strong>support[at]state51.com</strong>\r\n\r\n<strong>Work experience:\r\n</strong>We welcome work experience visitors and interns, but please <em><a href=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/about-3/\">read this before contacting us</a>.</em><strong>\r\n</strong>\r\n\r\n<strong>Proposals: </strong>\r\nFor book or journal article proposals use <b>proposals[at]strangeattractor.co.uk\r\n</b><em>Please read <a href=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/news/submission-guidelines/\">these guidelines</a> before sending us your submission.</em>','Contact','','inherit','closed','closed','','5388-revision-v1','','','2018-01-04 08:19:47','2018-01-04 08:19:47','',5388,'http://strangeattractor.co.uk/news/5388-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6067,2,'2018-01-10 15:07:52','2018-01-10 15:07:52','Strange Attractor Press is an independent publishing house, founded in 2003, based in London, UK and run by Mark Pilkington and Jamie Sutcliffe.\r\n\r\nWe edit, publish and produce all of our titles in-house, aided by freelance editors, designers, illustrators and proof readers, commissioned on a project-by-project basis.\r\n\r\n<strong>Proposals</strong>\r\nMost of our titles emerge out of discussions with authors and we only rarely take on new projects on spec.

Since then Mark has continued to organise sporadic Strange Attractor events and to work on larger collaborative projects.\r\n\r\nIn <strong>2003</strong>, along with designer Ali Hutchinson, Mark edited and published <em>Strange Attractor Journal One</em>, an anthology (now out-of-print) of writing on neglected and esoteric cultural, historical and anthropological themes in keeping with the original events, that marked the first appearance of Strange Attractor Press.\r\n\r\nIn <strong>2010 </strong>Strange Attractor Press became a limited company and in <strong>2014</strong> Jamie Sutcliffe joined us as an editor and publisher. In <strong>2017 </strong>SAP titles were picked up for global distribution by the MIT Press.\r\n\r\nOver a decade since its inception, with numerous exhibitions and books in its past, and in its future, Strange Attractor Press continues its mission to celebrate unpopular culture.

There’s really no escaping it. Starting out as a series of live events, it has slowly transmuted into an annual publication, set up an online clearing house for the weird and the wonderful and recently made its first move towards establishing itself as a publishing house. “Strange Attractor celebrates unpopular culture,” runs its mission statement. “We declare war on mediocrity and a pox on the foot soldiers of stupidity. Join us.” Who could possibly resist such a challenge? Sooner or later you have to get involved. (In the interests of full transparency: the writer of this article has taken part in a number of Strange Attractor evenings and is a regular contributor to Strange Attractor Journal.)\r\n\r\nWith orders for the Strange Attractor publications coming in from all over the world, and mainstream media like The Independent On Sunday praising it for producing “one of the most weirdly beautiful, beautifully weird magazines of the past hundred-odd years” a bigger problem presents itself. How do you celebrate unpopular culture without losing its unpopularity?\r\n\r\n“There’s certainly no business plan,” admits Strange Attractor Journal’s publisher and chief editor, Mark Pilkington. “We’re really making it all up as we go along. I hope thatStrange Attractor’s approach to culture is simultaneously that of the archaeologist, the ethnographer, the anthropologist, the occultist, the showman and the curator.”\r\n\r\nIt’s a heady mix. The first two issues, both book-sized anthologies running to more than 200 and 400 pages apiece, have presented material ranged across such elusive topics as mind control experiments, mould art, hair sculpture, cargo cults, neglected gods and forgotten waxworks. Such a list limits more than it clarifies, however. Strange Attractor Journal is concerned less with the unexplained than with the unexpected. You never know what it will cover next.\r\n\r\n“I think Strange Attractor is refreshing to people in that it manages to straddle several cultural channels while still following its own agenda,” Pilkington admits, “and it’s one not driven by the same obvious memes. But at the same time it’s important that it doesn’t become obscurantist for its own sake—some things are lost for a reason, others will only resurface when the time is right.”\r\n\r\nStrange Attractor’s wayward eclecticism dates back to a series of monthly events begun in the summer of 2001 by Pilkington in collaboration with artist John Lundberg and continuing over the next two years. Staged at London’s Horse Hospital venue, they gave an early indication of the loose network of experimental enterprises that was starting to come into existence, linking outsider artists with cultural anthropologists, textual hackers and practising occultists.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-2699\" title=\"SA2\" src=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/SA2-300x235.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"235\" />\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/SA3.png\"><img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2702\" title=\"SA3\" src=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/SA3-300x290.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"290\" /></a>\r\n\r\n“We’d mix talks, films, music, presentations, each night being themed around a different topic,” Pilkington recalls. “I rather pretentiously called them ‘information happenings’. Subjects ranged from conspiracy theory to theremins, Esperanto to magick, hoaxes, illusions and psychic deceptions: basically anything that interested us and could draw people that we liked or wanted to meet into one place.” Highlights included a live and bloody demonstration of psychic surgery, sci-fi movie themes played on vintage electronic instruments and a live Lovecraft-influenced Chaos Magick ritual with a soundtrack performed “by a band who couldn’t see what was going on.”\r\n\r\nAfter Lundberg enrolled at the National Film and Television School, Pilkington went solo but eventually grew tired of doing regular live events, deciding instead to do something that would last longer: hence the Journal.\r\n\r\nThe notion of outliving the moment, of being around for more than just a quick cultural fix, is very much a part of SAJ’s overall look and feel. The first thing you notice is that the front and back cover of each issue is devoid of text or title, which only appears on the book’s spine. If you want to know who the contributors are, you’ll have to look inside.\r\n\r\n“For me, it was about giving as much space as possible to striking images and therefore making them stand out on the bookshelf,” Pilkington explains. “I imagined people being aware that something was wrong with the cover but perhaps not being able to put their finger on it.”\r\n\r\nThe absence of cover copy also binds together the Journal’s various contributors in the anonymity of a collective endeavour. “We’re lucky enough to live in an age where we can clearly trace the influences of the past on our present,” Pilkington continues, “and it’s not always today’s most celebrated ideas, musicians and writers who will be remembered. This notion of timelessness is very important to what SAJ is and does. I’d like the books to be as irrelevant to a reader 100 years in the future as it would be to someone 100 years in the past. It’s a re-manipulation of the notion of built-in obsolescence.”\r\n\r\nThe Journal’s pages teem with old woodcuts, antiquated typefaces and intricate layouts, giving the impression of having been produced in some parallel past: one that runs counter to established tenets of historical development. Having previously worked as a journalist for periodicals as varied as Fortean Times, Bizarre and The Guardian, Mark Pilkington remains keenly aware of what’s going on around him.\r\n\r\n“There’s a particularly vibrant, very loose cultural network in London at the moment,” he remarks, “one that incorporates music and sound, ideas and information, visual arts and almost anything else you’d care to imagine. It’s inevitable that these people, places and events all bounce off and influence each other in a kind of subcultural Brownian motion.”\r\n\r\nAs well as working closely with designer Alison Hutchinson, readying volume three for publication, Pilkington has also been getting Strange Attractor Press up and running. Its first book to date, The Field Guide: The Art, History And Philosophy Of Crop Circle Making by Rob Irving and John Lundberg, is a particularly cerebral blend of art theory, paranormal phenomena, hoaxes and speculations, ruggedly bound and designed to fit snugly inside your knapsack while out exploring the British countryside. Conventional wisdom says it shouldn’t work, but Strange Attractor’s own particular blend of parlour magic proves that it does.\r\n\r\n“I sometimes see myself as a medium,” Mark reveals, “a channel for all the material that has formed Strange Attractor. I’ve been incredibly lucky with the amazing contributions the Journal has attracted so far.”\r\n\r\nThere’s no escaping it. Strange Attractor really is well named.','About','','inherit','closed','closed','','2624-revision-v1','','','2018-01-10 15:07:52','2018-01-10 15:07:52','',2624,'http://strangeattractor.co.uk/news/2624-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(6068,2,'2018-01-23 14:20:50','2018-01-23 14:20:50','<strong><a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/all-in-the-downs/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6092\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-6092\" src=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/allinthedownscover-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"336\" height=\"478\" /></a><a href=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/shoppe/all-in-the-downs/attachment/allinthedownscover/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-5998\">\r\n</a>Reflections on Life, Landscape and Song</strong>\r\nBy Shirley Collins\r\n\r\n<i>I</i><i style=\"color: #000000;\">ntroduction by Stewart Lee\r\n</i><strong> PB / Limited HB\r\n196mm x 132mm\r\n280pp, 58 images in colour &amp; B/W\r\n£15.99 (PB) /\r\nHB IS NOW SOLD OUT\r\n</strong><strong> ISBN: 9781907222412</strong>\r\n\r\n<em>(Cover photo by SF Said)</em>\r\n<div>\r\n\r\n<strong>Available in paperback and a special hardback edition including an insert signed by Shirley Collins</strong><strong> (limited to 500 copies - SOLD OUT).  </strong>\r\n\r\n<em> </em><a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/all-in-the-downs/\"><strong>Order the paperback here</strong></a><strong><a href=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/shoppe/all-in-the-downs/attachment/r1-kd_w8_400x400/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6317\"><img class=\"wp-image-6317 alignleft\" src=\"http://strangeattractor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/r1-kD_W8_400x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"123\" height=\"123\" /></a></strong>\r\n<h2><strong>Winner of the 5th Penderyn Music Book Prize!</strong></h2>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<em>\"Spirited... elegant... highly enjoyable...

In her new memoir, <i>All in the Downs</i>, Collins tells the story of that lifelong relationship with English folksong—a dedication to artistic integrity that has guided her through the triumphs and tragedies of her life.\r\n\r\n<i>All in the Downs</i> combines elements of memoir—from her working-class origins in wartime Hastings to the bright lights of the 1950s folk revival in London—alongside reflections on the role traditional music and the English landscape have played in shaping her vision. From formative field recordings made with Alan Lomax in the United States to the “crowning glories” recorded with her sister Dolly on the Sussex Downs, she writes of the obstacles that led to her withdrawal from the spotlight and the redemption of a new artistic flourishing that continues today with her unexpected return to recording in 2016.\r\n\r\nThrough it all, Shirley Collins has been guided and supported by three vital and inseparable loves: traditional English song, the people and landscape of her native Sussex, and an unwavering sense of artistic integrity. <i>All in the Downs</i> pays tribute to these passions, and in doing so, illustrates a way of life as old as England, that has all but vanished from this land.\r\n\r\n<strong>About the Author</strong>\r\nShirley Collins MBE  is a renowned folk singer who has recorded over 20 albums, and the author of <em>America Over the Water</em> (2004).

B. Yeats as a “scholar, connoisseur, drunkard, poet, pervert, most charming of men,” Count Stanislaus Eric Stenbock (1860–1895) is surely the greatest exemplar of the Decadent movement of the late nineteenth century.\r\n\r\nA friend of Aubrey Beardsley, patron of the extraordinary pre-Raphaelite artist Simeon Solomon, and contemporary of Oscar Wilde, Stenbock died at the age of thirty-six as a result of his addiction to opium and his alcoholism, having published just three slim volumes of suicidal poetry and one collection of morbid short stories.\r\n\r\nStenbock was a homosexual convert to Roman Catholicism and owner of a serpent, a toad, and a dachshund called Trixie. It was said that toward the end of his life he was accompanied everywhere by a life-size wooden doll that he believed to be his son. His poems and stories are replete with queer, supernatural, mystical, and Satanic themes; original editions of his books are highly sought by collectors of recherché literature.\r\n\r\nEdited and introduced by David Tibet; with an afterword by Tim d\'Arch Smith and a comprehensive bibliography by David Tibet, Ray Russell and Mark Valentine, <em>Of Kings and Things</em> is the first introduction to Stenbock’s writing for the general reader.\r\n\r\nThis volume offers fifteen stories, including all of those in his fabled collections <em>Studies of Death</em> and <em>Child of the Soul</em>,  over thirty poems and two essays by this complex, intriguing figure.\r\n\r\n<strong><a href=\"https://strangeattractor.greedbag.com/buy/of-kings-and-things/\">PRE-ORDER IT HERE</a></strong></li>\r\n</ul>','Of Kings and Things','Of Kings and Things: Strange Tales and Decadent Poems\r\nby Count Eric Stanislaus Stenbock\r\nEdited by David Tibet','inherit','closed','closed','','6012-revision-v1','','','2018-03-13 10:08:53','2018-03-13 10:08:53','',6012,'http://strangeattractor.co.uk/news/6012-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),
