11:00 - Gopal Dutta. 'Walking to see a MAYT'.
A site-specific walk led by the artist. This year’s only real live walk, for 10 lucky participants who live in or near Huddersfield! Participants will walk together through Grimescar woods to find a ‘monumental ancient yew tree’ i.e. ‘MAYT’. This is one of only two trees in Huddersfield listed on the ‘Monumental trees’ database and is a truly awesome sight. Along the way, there are also impressive views of Huddersfield town - home of the Fourth World Congress of Psychogeography. For this face-to-face activity, participants must register on Eventbrite (link below) then gather at the meeting point in Huddersfield between 10:50-11:00. Please allow 90 minutes for this activity, wear suitable footwear and be prepared to walk over uneven and probably wet ground. This walk has not been checked for accessibility and is unlikely to be suitable for people with a mobility impairment.

12:30 - Richard Byrne, Clemence Debaig and David Upton. 'MOOZ - Playing out with Zoom.'
Is it possible to play real games over Zoom? How much do we really understand the platform, and how does it affect our interactions? What do we learn about ourselves if we try? How do we know if we're winning? Is Zoom safe to use for important things, like work or psychogeography? Why all these questions? Join the Mooz team in 15 minute games, familiar and unfamiliar, and find out. Please book ahead via Eventbrite so we can send you a Zoom link. Game rules will be explained for those who don't know them already. Sessions will be recorded.

13:00 - Cadu Cinelli - 'Embroidered landscapes.’
Before Covid-19, Cadu Cinelli travelled around giving live, bicycle storytelling performances. The landscapes, places and people of his home city - Curitiba in Southern Brazil - were within his storytelling bicycle pedals. Then, as the pandemic struck and lockdown took hold, Cinelli looked for ways to reinvent his performance. He began embroidering the stories in cartographies and recording audio. In this online talk, the artist will show some of his embroidered maps, tell some of their stories and share part of his creative process, demonstrating how narration and embroidery can weave for us an imaginary walk.
