Knitta is a group of anonymous knitters who leave graffiti on monuments, utility poles, and other public items in the form of knitted yarn and other prepared textiles.[1] Their mission is to make street art “a little more warm and fuzzy.”

Started in 2005 by two women tagging the Houston metropolitan area, Knitta grew to eleven members. Up to a dozen groups internationally have followed their lead. Knitta has been invited to show their art in Los Angeles, Paris, China, Australia[3][4] and elsewhere.

Longplayer, a circular music performance

On Saturday 12 September at the Roundhouse, Jem Finer (The Pogues) directs Longplayer’s spectacular first-ever live performance: a 1,000 minute section from its 1,000 year duration. A tiny fragment from its great expanse, Longplayer Live will be played by a 26-strong all-star orchestra on a unique 20-metre wide instrument effectively a giant bronze age synthesizer, with highly resonant singing bowls for tone generators and humans for power. http://www.roundhouse.org.uk/whats-on
