The Vigilante Projectionist

Part 1

In the summer of 2021, a vigilante projectionist stalked the streets of London.

Night after night, he - or should I say she? - projected unacceptable messages onto the façades of our great institutions.

Parliament, the Bank of England, the NHS, the BBC, the London Mayoralty: none were spared this flippant impertinence.

Who was behind it all? We shall never know. It is my duty to protect my sources ;).

But each message carried the tag, “Fraz”.

As official chronicler of The Decline, it has fallen to me to record this subversion for posterity. Over the next few weeks, I shall be providing some occasional morning entertainment in the form of the Vigilante Projectionist’s Greatest Hits.

Finally, if you should happen to be in the Scottish neck of the woods this August, I am doing one of my lectures with funny bits at the Edinburgh Fringe this year.

This one is about gold. It has got Greek gods, heists, interstellar collisions and Nazis. What more you could want in a show? Except possibly Vikings, I’m not sure.

It’s from August 4th to 20th at 2pm - some highbrow mind food with which to start your day before you get sloshed. Please come if you are in town- you can get tickets here.

Plus, it’s in the room in which Adam Smith completed Wealth of Nations.

Hopefully, I will see you there.
