"I CAN FEEL THE HEAT closing in, feel them out there making their moves, setting up their devil doll stool pigeons, crooning over my spoon and dropper I throw away at Washington Square Station, vault a turnstile and two flights down the iron stairs, catch an uptown A train..." Opening words of William S. Burrough's Naked Lunch

Exploding Alphabets - Friday 5th May - 8pm - Morden Tower

EA 5/5 rounds upon HEAT as a subject matter and invites all artists, poets and vagabonds to think heatwards for inspiration.

There may or may not be cocktails. There may or may not be scores of original, pressured and blistering works. There may or may not be oiled bodybuilders flown in from Miami.

Buoyed by the recent temperate evenings and warm spring (as well as the imminent emigration of EA members to Latin America) Exploding Alphabets presents an evening of themed poetry, song and performance that is sure to doom the recent pleasant weather to an abrupt end. Still, if EA isn't about the creation of an atmosphere, literal or otherwise, then it doesn't exist.

All are welcome to observe or participate. All work must be new and unperformed and all must be prepared to be part of an audience that does things, an audience that thinks. Exploding Alphabets is as much of a creative process as it is an event.

EA 5/5 costs £1.
EA starts at 8pm sharp.
EA is at Morden Tower on Back Stowell Street.
