Transition Culture has moved
I no longer blog on this site. You can now find me, my general blogs, and the work I am doing researching my forthcoming book on imagination, on my new blog.
After the preview of ‘In Transition 2.0’ at the Barn Cinema in Dartington, producer Emma Goude and I answered questions, both from the audience and also that were sent in via Twitter from the other previews that took place that night.

The presenters are Greg Pilley of Stroud Brewery (as mentioned in yesterday’s post), and Dan McTiernan of The Handmade Bakery (one of the stars of ‘In Transition 2.0’).
