I make work around and about politics,” he elaborates, “so politics is definitely embedded in the art as either a piece of political theatre or political memorial. It reflects his belief in the alchemical power of art to transform the everyday – “if only for a moment, making the mundane profound”. Much has been written about Deller over the decades but this is the first time he has pulled together all of his cultural touchstones. Curating the festival for the first time, Jen and James have been inspired by Folkestone and how we can all come together through inspired discussion about global ideas, global thinking and possible futures.But if you can let go early in the process, have an intelligent conversation with the public and be open to surprises, then the outcomes can be unexpected and better.

There was a folk element, too, insofar as raves were communal, grassroots events that involved rituals and strange modes of dress.
