Saturday 20 & Sunday 21 June 2026: 'Goe no more to Brainford', a guided tour with pub stops as part of the Brentford Canal Festival. Join us for tranquil rivers, art deco wonders, proper pubs, and a poignant history of transience and travel. Tickets and details: www.minimumlabyrinth.org/brentford

As part of Brentford Canal Festival, we'll be running Goe no more to Brainford, a guided tour with pub stops. Brentford is more ancient than London, and on occasion more noisome. Join us for tranquil rivers and art deco wonders. Sat 20 / Sun 21 June 2026. www.minimumlabyrinth.org/brentford

Had a fabulous guided walk tonight – led by @minimumlabyrinth.bsky.social – of "the unburied corner of London", around Barbican, the Museum of London and London Wall.

To celebrate our new minimumlabyrinth.org website, we've made our acclaimed audio drama A Fragment of Life free to download, published a paperback edition of our out-of-print London Baroque, and put all our guided London walks for June on our new platform Luma.

I think this maybe the most niché bit of trivia I’ve ever heard.

I am heartbroken to tell you that Clare Churly @churly.bsky.social passed away last night after a brief illness. Please message me with your email if you would like to be kept informed of arrangements. It has all been so sudden and so there are no plans yet. We will all miss Clare immensely.

Happy new year to you all. Here's to walks in 2026 with warmer, drier weather, and cooler, wetter pints, with a salty packet of historical factlets: Goe no more to Brainford (Sun 12 April) By A Long Chalk (Mon 27 April) Drury Lane (Sun 3 May) Rendlesham (Tues 29 December) minimumlabyrinth.org

REVIEW: In their most ambitious experience yet, Minimum Labyrinth deliver an utterly surreal journey through Lambeth in this walking tour-cum-promenade theatre show. www.immersiverumours.com/post/review-...

Review: Doin' The Lambeth Walk (Oi!) by Minimum Labyrinth - Immersive Rumours

The latest show from Minimum Labyrinth is as much a walking tour as it is a piece of bewilderingly surreal promenade theatre.

Looking forward to reading this. Well done Justin - another winner.

Goe no more to Brainford is our ninth London walk. We go westward, to the old town of Brentford: more ancient than London, and on occasion more noisome. Join us for tranquil rivers, art deco wonders, proper pubs, and a poignant history of transience and travel. 8/9 Nov 2025. minimumlabyrinth.org

An important question that @whenisbirths.bsky.social (or others) may be able to answer. Is Genesis's 1974 classic prog rock album, The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, the first use of the phrase 'windscreen wiper' in any lyrics, or does anything pre-date this?

Sunday 7 September is now sold out, but there are still spaces available on Saturday 6 September for Doin' The Lambeth Walk (Oi!). This is the final date in 2025 so make sure you book now if you would like to see it. minimumlabyrinth.org

What a poetic time we had on Saturday on the Peter Ackroyd Thames Walk 2025. 28 pilgrims; 14km from Westminster to Rotherhithe; 8 pubs; and 170 million years of riverine history. And thanks to your marvellous generosity, @areamancm.bsky.social and I raised £1,215 for Trees for Cities and CF Trust.

If you ever get a chance to go a walk with @minimumlabyrinth.bsky.social do it me 'ole china! I also danced along on their merry Lambeth Walk (oi!) recently and it was / is the best way to spend an afternoon in London.

Honoured to join the new @minimumlabyrinth.bsky.social tour, Doin’ The Lambeth Walk (Oi) on Saturday. This is a special one, an epic feel and an immersive theatre vibe, with psychogeographic wanderings underpinned by a certain 70s telefantasy show. Amazing performances, fascinating stories, huge fun

By the early 02030s, a staggering 70 percent of the world’s entire land-based astronomical data gathering capacity is expected to be concentrated in an swath of Chilean desert about the size of Oregon.

Stumbling Towards First Light

Why has Chile, a country riven by inequality and political conflict, become a global sanctuary for the long science that drives astronomical discovery?
