The video clips you see below consitute a growing anthology. They are arranged alphabetically by author. You may play them one at a time or several at once. The texts chosen by readers all imagine and attend to the ‘architecture’ of utopia. This collection of readings, gathered from the utopian talk-show line-up events and from the online community aims to act as a testimony to our collective desire to image difference. Thanks to the host organisations, to all our readers and to our intern Libby Clayton. For more information.
Structured alphabetically by author of reading.
