The documentary about Nick Papadimitriou that I have blogged about here many a time, the London Perambulator is now finished and will be screening as part of the East End Film Festival at the Whitechapel Gallery Wed 29th April at 7pm. After the screening there will be a panel discussion with the greats of psychgeography and to appease Nick we'll also say 'Deep Topography" (in the doc you can see Iain Sinclair enthusiastically signing up to Deep Topography and renouncing psychogeography) - Will Self, Iain Sinclair, Andrea Philips and myself - although I'll probably end up just listening to those three.
As well as footage from walks I've done with Nick over the past year it features fantastic interviews with Russell Brand, Will Self and Iain Sinclair.

I've just found out that the film has also been nominated for the International Film Guide Inspiration award for Best Documentary Feature

hullo John, any plans to show this film elsewhere? Would love to see it at this festival, but not sure I can make it over to London at that time...
Hi John - yes there will be other screenings. I'll post info as and when they are confirmed

Hi,
I saw the film and thought it was very interesting. Do you or Nick have any plans to take things further? I especially liked the sequences with Nick reading from Iain Sinclair. Does he write himself? It would've been good to have heard some in the film.
he is indeed a very fine writer and that was his own writing that you heard him read in the film
He is also the author of Foul Deeds and Suspicious Deaths in Barnet, Finchley and Hendon - not your ordinary local history book
