À propos de cet audio

This episode is a celebration of Gordon Jenkins' 1946 piece 'Manhattan Tower'. Described by the author as 'a love song to New York' it's a curious story of a romanticised city that might not be everything it's supposed to be. Dan and Will find themselves discussing the subject of psycho-geography and questioning how much influence any given place has in dictating the stories of the people that live there. Are we stories being told by the physical buildings in which we live?

Psycho-geography (as thought about by Will Self)

“I live not in myself, but I become

Portion of that around me: and to me

High mountains are a feeling, but the hum

of human cities torture.”


― George Gordon Byron,
