Episode Description

In this episode Gary Mansfield speaks to Jimmy Cauty (@towerblock1)


Jimmy Cauty aka James Cauty, Musician, K Foundation artist, deconstructed rock star, part time model village builder, honorary undertaker, town planner, record producer, wooly-back-misfit, armchair rioter, head composer/conductor/AV mixer for The L-13 Light Industrial Orchestra


Over a diverse and productive anti-career Cauty has distinguished himself by somehow coming up with at least one must-have-counter-culture-design-classic per decade, we are not sure what he does the rest of the time.


Cauty works closely with the L-13 Light Industrial Workshop London to develop projects both ambitious and diminutive, make prints & other artwork editions and convert impractical artistic visions to reality.


A dystopian 1:24 scale model village high rise housing estate, consisting of 4 abandoned tower blocks, housed in a 40ft shipping container currently on tour

Cauty has documented the tower block 2 year design and build process.
