Accidental Holiday is a guide to the Greenwich Peninsula created at a time when the Peninsula is poised for dramatic change in the form of a “ master planned community” . Consisting of a walk and suggested activities this guide invites you to engage with the area in playful ways that call into question the appropriate uses of public space. It is the result of collaborative research that brought together people with a particular link to the area, each with their own perspectives. They included: a local liberal democrat councillor, children and parents from Millennium Primary School, local residents and workers, employees of the company developing the area - Meridian Delta Ltd and local media arts company Independent Photography who commissioned the project. Together we took outings across the peninsula: engaging with each other and the environment. Our activities raised discussion of pertinent issues which you will now find printed throughout the guide |
