7.27 London (Day 3)
今日起床後,去了樓上學生飯堂食早餐,食物不錯,但只限六樣食物,我忘記了之前看過這一個網上資訊,阿姐姐就瞪大了她的雙眼提醒我。
之後,坐地鐵去old street station. 住我呢一區,兩個字,方便。
我找了一輪,終於去左 East London 參加了Alternative London street art workshop. 真的大開眼界。
TOASTERS (OVER 20 YEARS)
ROCK GRAFFITI
CHEWING GUM GRAFFITI
MY STENCIL
這兩年看了幾本有關街頭塗鴉與城市空間爭議的書本,導賞員也有提及這一點,爭議內容:城市的空間是代表資本階級的廣告商獨享,還是所有市民共享的?這個課題幾有趣,打開幾本介紹塗鴉的書都有說。
不過,可以來到這區充滿了世界各地的頂尖街頭藝術,不得了。起初,有些人家要裝修外牆,嘗試了叫這些藝術家在牆上畫,現在他們畫圖一定有permits,否則坐牢坐兩年。其實,不參加導賞自己走來shoreditch就看得到/即是East end,喜歡拍照的人這邊有很多題材。圖片中有我用stencil噴的作品,找到嗎?最似外星人個幾隻。

The Sunday Sessions presents The Sunday Singers at Union Chapel, London by Alice Zawadzki
Doors open 2.30pm, music 3pm – 5pm
HK$113.83+14.23=$128.06
“The range of textures and colours, the expressive possibilities seemed more or less infinite.” London Jazz NewsVocalist and violinist Alice Zawadzki presents a collection of songs encompassing rich influences, from her own modern fairytales full of whimsy, mischief, obsession and magic, to ancient traditional songs of loss, exodus and prejudice, to heavy intoxicated night time beats. Alice’s diverse background and striking ability to retain her own expressive style keeps storytelling at the fore.
“… a huge vocal and instrumental talent with an engagingly eccentric, sensual and feminine writing style… it’s perfectly possible that she could go on to enjoy the kind of large scale yet still defiantly left field success of performers like Björk, Kate Bush, Tory Amos and Florence Welch.” The Jazz Mann
Band Members:
Alice Zawadzki – voice, violin
Alex Roth – guitar
Pete Lee – piano/keyboards
Tom McCredie – bass
Jon Scott – drums

The Sunday Sessions is a fortnightly event featuring some of London’s finest acoustic musicians. Enjoy some tasty food and drink then sink into a comfy sofa and spend a lazy Sunday afternoon in the relaxed surroundings of the Union Chapel Bar.
Union Chapel, an architectural treasure that’s home to a church, an award winning venue, a unique organ and a centre for those homeless and in crisis in London.
The building itself was saved from demolition in the 1980’s thanks to the campaigning of local residents who went on to become Friends of Union Chapel.
Union Chapel Project was formed as a charity to restore & develop the building and to open the space up to a diverse group of people.
The Chapel is now Grade 1 listed and welcomes thousands of visitors a year.

另外,我學懂了在巴士站看巴士路線圖,我真心覺得英國的地圖做得很清晰,因為一般街上都有很多地圖,地圖掛在路上,地圖有兩面,你望到的一面就是說你要直行多少分鐘會到那些街道,建築物,車站等等,就連比例尺也分兩種,但向一般人交待,它用了時間,分五分鐘和十五分鐘路程。根據本人在歐洲的少許經驗,倫敦真的很巴閉。十個讚。我學懂了坐巴士,太方便了。
晚上來到了Leicester square 買便宜票,但好像沒有,唉,貴貴地成45磅買了七月三十日Les miserables! 當睇演唱會啦!
在Leicester square 附近發生了一件事,有一個中國小孩走失了,在家上大哭找媽媽。 整條街的人也不知如何幫她,因為未搞清楚情況。此時,有一位英國婦人跑出餐廳,把小女孩抱在手中,安慰小女孩幫她找媽媽。她一面抱一面問有誰見到她的媽媽,一分鐘後,路人說那一邊有人在找女兒。她們重逄了,結果是中國媽沒有多謝英國人,還超級大聲的責備女兒。我看到的是文化差異,我看到的是中國不可能發生的事。
到了這邊很多中國餐,我去了食,因為抵食。之後,行行下行左過Soho 見識一下。不錯,很熱鬧呢!
