Welcome to the Measure home page.

Below are some site highlights from the exhibition websites in our archive. The Measure website has a lot of in depth content about our exhibitions and the history of the buildings we've worked in, so we've picked out a few links below.

58 Processions

Visit the new 58 Processions website for four Super 8 clips of the Sanema Santa Easter processions in Seville, and audio clips of the work. The exhibition weaves four channel sound recordings from the processions around the vaulted arched passage ways of the crypt.

58 Processions opens on Friday 8th August and runs until the 24th August.

   
         
 
         
 

Transit.
Read Iain Sinclairs narrative for Emily Richardson's film.

Measure worked with filmmaker Emily Richardson and commissioned the first part of her continuing film project Transit in 2006. We approached author and poet Iain Sinclair with a view to a collaboration on an historical aspect of the project. However his generosity and interest was such that Emily interviewed him at length for what became three spoken word narratives for each of Transits three screens.

Emily is working on Transit for a new project which she is running with Susanna Edwards based around Iain's new book 'Hackney, That Red Rose Empire' to be published in late 2008.

 

Read the narration transcripts here exclusively on the Measure site.

 

 
         
 
         
 

Wiltons Music Hall.
The expanded history of London's most beautiful venue.

Measure produced 'Me & My Shadow' for Wilton's Music Hall in May 2005. It was one of the most evocative and atmospheric buildings we have ever worked in. We collaborated with the Museum of London and the archives at Wilton's to collate the history of the Hall. Written by John Earl, one of the people who discovered and saved Wilton's from the LCC's slum clearance in the 1960's, the result was a re-creation of the early variety newspaper The Era.

The Museum of London recorded an aural history interview with John which was played along with others in one of the ground floor rooms.
