Comments on the event at the Swedenborg House

Last night’s show at Swedenborg House was well received. Amanda Schiff commented: ‘I half-expected Brian to produce clouds of ectoplasm after he swallowed the film – and a rapt audience induced into that kind of silence is rare. The idea of the illustrated lecture seems to be making a comeback (if it ever really went away) and the Hall was a great venue. Something genuinely strange about the place. I love the idea that some people were there as followers of the Catling/Sinclair enquiries and some were Swedenborgian mystics but you couldn’t tell by looking at them. I wonder how many have been converted one way or the other?’

There is a comment on the Jonathan Jones blog.
